Laser-powered photonic circuits drive displays, double-anonymous peer review takes on gender bias, International Year of Glass hits its stride

Date:

In this episode of the Physics World Weekly podcast, we meet Jonas Zeuner, who is co-founder and managing director of the Austrian start-up company VitreaLab. He explains how the firm’s laser-powered photonic integrated circuits could find use in applications including holographic displays, medicine, and telecommunications.

Our next guest is Kim Eggleton, who is research integrity and inclusion manager at IOP Publishing, which publishes scientific journals and Physics World. She explains how double-anonymous peer review can help eliminate gender and other biases in scholarly publishing. Eggleton also talks about how the double-anonymous process can help physicists become better reviewers.

The United Nations International Year of Glass 2022 kicked off earlier this year. Its chair, the physicist Alicia Durán, is also a guest on the podcast. She talks about what she hopes the International Year will achieve and previews some of the many glass-related events that are upcoming in 2022.
