The main goal of the Workshopis promotion of school and high school youth achievements in optics - a thriving direction in physics.
One of the leading scientific schools of optics in Russia, which is a recognized authority in other countries formed in Saratov to date. Conferences, seminars and scientific schools are one of the effective ways to attract talented young people to scientific work, particularly in the area of optical research. Widening the circle of young people, the inclusion of students in high schools and colleges, including the physical, technical and other natural sciences field are one of the main tasks of scientific-methodical workshop on "Modern Optics".
Organized in cooperation with
- Saratov Physics and Technical Lyceum
- Lyceums No. 2, 4 and 15
- Lyceum boarding school 64
- Secondary schools No. 45, 51, 54, 67 and 77
- Gymnasium No. 5

Workshop program
The program of the seminar "Modern Optics" consists of poster session “Science incubator for school children and students on Photonics”, lectures and demonstration parts and seminars on selected topics. One lecture day with thematic sections supposed to hold the afternoon. Section sessions supposed to hold for 3-4 favorites, the most interesting topics for teachers, which posts students and pupils on the results of independent work is supposed to hear and discuss also.
Lecture for schoolchildren
What is “nanoscopy,”or how to see a single molecule
Lecturer: Andrey V. Naumov
Corresponding member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Institute of Spectroscopy of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia
This popular science lecture is devoted to one of the most topical areas of modern optics - optical microscopy of ultrahigh spatial resolution. It tells how individual molecules can be “examined” using a conventional optical microscope, as well as how these technologies can be applied in biophysics, nanotechnology, medicine, and quantum informatics.
