Dr Lisa Haerteis is a photonics reseachers and obtained her Ph.D. in electrical engineering in 2023, specialising in fibre optic sensing. Currently serving as a Grant-Funded Researcher at IPAS (Institute for Photonics and Advanced Sensing) at the University of Adelaide, her focus is on the dynamic fields of Photonic Integrated Circuits (PICs). In her academic journey, she has cultivated expertise across multiple disciplines, with a strong emphasis on fibre optic sensing and respective measurement techniques, particularly involving microwave photonics. Following this, she moved on to the captivating realm of Photonic Integrated Circuits. Her main research interests delve into photonics integrated circuits and their use for nonlinear optics, as well as integrated microwave photonics which spans the interdisciplinary intersection of the photonic and microwave world.

An integral aspect of her professional approach is a commitment to building a vast global network. As an alumni of the Max Planck School of Photonics, she has had the privilege of connecting with numerous passionate researchers worldwide. This affiliation has proven invaluable in fostering collaborations and expanding her network within various photonics fields. Keen on leveraging these connections, her aspiration is to contribute to the global discourse on photonics and collaborate with like-minded researchers. Driven by curiosity and a dedication to interdisciplinary collaboration, she is enthusiastic about pushing the boundaries of knowledge in Photonic Integrated Circuits and microwave photonics while actively engaging with a diverse and extensive network of professionals across the world.

I am currently investigating stimulated Brillouin scattering in photonic integrated circuits. I have a strong interest in integrated microwave photonics and nonlinear optics in photonic integrated circuits.
