As it \nfollows, the details of this brand new initiative:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How does the idea come to mind?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Esteban (E): <\/strong>Once we received the big funding, the \nQUIMAL, for this Center, there was a big intention to actively search \nfor collaborators that are involved in the same topics as us. \nEventually, when Dr. Pedreros visited us, who is also doing his \nposdoctoral research now in LAM, the contact was made to reach the team \nwho is developing research in France in these topics. It was there when I\n personally propose the idea to apply for this funding, and do it \ntogether, after a talk that I made for the french research group. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is the main goal behind this project?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>E: <\/strong>Normally, the main goal in these type of projects\n is to do that, to give more strength to the link between researchers. \nThis is no exception. And of course, to have an exchange between the \ncollaborators and the students also. In this project in particular the \nidea is to develop multidisciplinary research and explore the \nperformance of having two partners in Latin America. It has a due of \nthree years, where the graduate students will visit Chile, Colombia and \nFrance. The research will focus on the deep understanding of the IA \napplications that can be used into adaptive optics issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Who will be part of this project? May you give us a little insight of the work schedule?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>E: <\/strong>From Colombia we will count on the team headed by\n Dr. Henry Arguello, and from France, with Dr. Benoit Neichel. Well, for\n the first year, we expect to have the students from Latin America stay \nat France doing research internships, so they can use this as a good \nopportunity to complement their graduate studies. At the end of the \nyear, we expect to do a workshop here in Valpara\u00edso. When it comes to \ninfrastructure, we\u2019ll use everything that is available until now by the \nassociates of this project.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to know more about the <a href=\"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/\">optoelectronics lab<\/a> and our Center, check out the official website for each one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Esteban Vera, professor and researcher of the optoelectronics lab of the PUCV\u2019s School of Electrical Engineering, and director for the Center for Adaptive Optics of Valpara\u00edso, has received funding&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":969,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1171","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1171","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1171"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1171\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1172,"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1171\/revisions\/1172"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/969"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1171"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1171"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/qommtrue.cl\/optolab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1171"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
