The March for Science, held on April 22, took place in over 600 cities around the globe. Over 250 organisations including, The Optical Society (OSA), connected for this non-partisan celebration of the value of science and scientific inquiry.
Fundamental optical research in the last century and key inventions, such as the laser, helped establish the basic science foundation that today enables high speed internet, GPS, smartphones and many other advances in society. Long-term research funding investments will impact tomorrow's transformational technologies and OSA members are at forefront of this research.
Science is a highly integrated, global enterprise that relies on hundreds of thousand scientists, engineers, and skilled staff to make incremental contributions to knowledge each day. OSA members who participated in the March for Science emphasised optimistic and hopeful scientific outcomes serving the greater good on a path to a better tomorrow: disease eradication, further exploration of the universe and long-term environmental sustainability.
