Dear Colleagues,
This year, we encountered an unprecedented global pandemic crisis and endured it. Thanks to the developments of vaccines, I hope we can go back to normal soon.

Through this challenging time, we have learned that we are all in together upon these global challenges, and can always find solutions to keep living and working remotely. Via online platforms, we can keep sharing scientific findings and collaborating. This KAIST e-workshop on Quantitative Phase Imaging will be a new venue to continue our scientific activities.

In this e-workshop, ten invited speakers will give exciting presentations and discuss recent developments and findings in the field of quantitative phase imaging. The topic ranges from fundamental optical sciences to various applications, including molecular cell biology, infectious diseases, and drug discovery. We would like to express our gratitude to the renowned speakers and all the participants to the workshop and hope you enjoy it.

YongKeun (Paul) Park, Professor, Department of Physics, KAIST
