The day ended with a very nice conference dinner - and with talks by #JohnHall and #EricCornell who summarized the history of the #ICOLS conference within the last 60 years or so - basically talking about #laser #spectroscopy since the invention of the laser!
Both speakers made it very clear that a) you cannot do what they did without the strong support of a partner and b) that they probably should have spent more time with their families and less time in the lab/at conferences.
