LEOS shall advance the interests of its members and the laser, optoelectronics, and photonics professional community by:
- providing opportunities for information exchange, continuing education, and professional growth;
- publishing journals, sponsoring conferences, and supporting local chapter and student activities;
- formally recognizing the professional contributions of members;
- representing the laser, optoelectronics, and photonics community and serving as its advocate within the IEEE, the broader scientific and technical community, and society at large.
Laser Institute of America
www.laserinstitute.org
For 40 years, Laser Institute of America (LIA) has been the international society for laser applications and safety. Our mission is to foster lasers, laser applications, and laser safety worldwide.
Serving the industrial, medical, research and government communities, LIA offers technical information and networking opportunities to laser users from around the globe.
Fulfilling our mission of fostering lasers, laser applications, and laser safety worldwide, LIA is the secretariat and publisher of the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Z136 series of laser safety standards.
These documents provide a thorough set of guidelines for implementing a safe laser program. The ANSI Z136 series is recognized by OSHA, and are the authoritative series of laser safety documents in the United States.
LIA also offers a wide array of products and services to thousands of end users. These include safety and applications publications, training videos, signs and labels, Laser Safety Officer training, and conferences.
Optical Society of America
www.osa.org
Founded in 1916, OSA brings together optics and photonics scientists, engineers, educators and business leaders. OSA is dedicated to providing its members
and the scientific community with educational resources that support technical and professional development.
OSA's publications, events and services help to advance the science of light by addressing the ongoing need for shared knowledge and innovation.
The Society's commitment to excellence and continuing education is the driving force behind all its initiatives.
SPIE
www.spie.org
SPIE is an international society advancing an interdisciplinary approach to the science and application of light. It is a key organizer and sponsor of major conferences and educational programs on optics and photonics, hosting 26 annual events around the world. In its mission to keep researchers informed SPIE publishes six scholarly journals, a variety of press books,
and close to 20,000 proceedings papers each year in its Digital Library. In support of students, the Society contributes more than $1M annually in scholarships, grants, and financial support. Founded in 1955, SPIE continues to support those who seek to learn, discover and innovate by building a better world with light.
