Hybrid
The Institute for Optical Science virtual option will be held on Zoom.
If you require an accommodation such as live captioning or interpretation to participate in this event, please contact Jessi Middleton (middleton.85@osu.edu) or Matt Boersma (boersma.11@osu.edu). Requests made five business day prior to the event will generally allow us to provide seamless access, but the university will make every effort to meet requests made after this date.
