Photonics West 2018
SPIE Student Chapter Officer Travel Grant
On behalf of the Board of Directors of SPIE—The International Society for Optics and Photonics, our former SPIE Chapter president Miss Guerra was awarded an “Officer Travel Grant” to attend the SPIE Student Shapter leadership workshop during SPIE Photonics West 2018, in San Francisco, California. In support of the participation, the award offered:
❖ A student grant of up to $1800 USD toward food and travel expenses❖ An additional student grant of up to $350 USD toward lodging
expenses❖ Full waiver of the student registration fee (valued at $360 USD).
Miss Guerra attended a full day leadership workshop on 26th January (2018) which wasinstructed by communications specialist Christine Hass. During the day, different methods onthe subject “The Craft of Scientific Presentations” were studied, and a series of practical exercises focused on improving communication (oral and body language) were performed.
She also got involved during the workshop with two short active participations: 1) along with other Chapter Officers she designed and presented a poster on effective communication and 2) offered herself to give an example of story teller to win the book “The Craft of Scientific Presentations” by Michael Alley.
During the lunch break, she presented the various SPIE Student Chapter activities held throughout 2017 with a poster presentation.
After attending the workshop, Miss Guerra shared her experience with other Chapter Officers and members back in Mexico to grow the Chapter by adopting new things and ideas which are being held by other SPIE Student Chapters.

We went on to celebrate Mexican child day with kids from an orphanage located 45 minutes to the north from our institute, for those who manage to get there, well it’s science and kids, the amazement from each one of them was enough to shake your heart and worth every second we spent there.
Like any great adventure, just at halfway one of our vehicles start heating due to the elevation of the terrain. Half of our party was left there waiting to be towed away home, while the remaining continue with our quest.
Our institute was the funding benefactor, some of the researchers gave us toys as presents for the childen.
Receiving visitors… Pearson College (05-07-18)
(LEFT ) We receive a few visitors this year, merely notice the ukuleles, besides optics, some of our members are proficient with musical instruments and can combine and share both passions.
(DOWN) Those kids were a tough audience; they were precise questioning and responding with a lot of formality. Yet amazed and curious at the same time.

SPIE Women in Optics
Alongside the activities of our 7th Regional congress CReO 2018, we give a commemorative plate to our five woman researchers acknowledging that some of them have been pioneers in the optical field in our research center.
We organize a meal and ceremony in recognition of the five research women we have, the meal was for all the members of our department, yet the event held a substantial impact on all our region, covered even by a national newspaper.
Our SPIE founding was of USD 900, USD 250 spent in five laser engraved metal plates mounted on a wooden base and a bouquet for each woman researcher. The remaining USD 650 were used to pay part of the meal for that celebration.
