The main goal of the Symposium is to present and discuss recent developments and applications of optical and laser technologies in medicine and biology, precise mechanics and control of tissues and cells, coherent optics of random and ordered media, material and environmental sciences, nonlinear dynamics of laser systems, laser physics, spectroscopy and molecular modeling, nanophotonics and nanobiophotonics. Fundamental problems of photonics, quantum optics and ultrafast optical techniques will be discussed.The main attention will be paid to discussion of basic research of interactions of coherent, low-coherent, polarized, spatially- and temporally-modulated electromagnetic radiation within the broad wavelength range from x-rays to terahertz with inhomogeneous scattering media and biological tissues and cells. Elastic, inelastic(Raman, SERS and CARS) and dynamic light scattering, Doppler effect, photoacoustic, photothermal and nonlinear effects and interactions, mechanical stresses,and photobiological effects will be considered. On this basis, the variety of laser and optical technologies for medical diagnostics, therapy, surgery, and light dosimetry, as well as for diagnostics and imaging of random and ordered media will be presented. Studies on lasers, fibers, and photonic crystal waveguides will be discussed. Plasmonics and biosensing will be one of the key features of the meeting. Official languages of the School and the Workshops are English and Russian, translation will be provided.
