The Technology Innovation Institute (TII), a leading global research center and the applied research pillar of Abu Dhabi’s Advanced Technology Research Council (ATRC) today announced that its Directed Energy Research Center (DERC), will organize the upcoming edition of GLOBALEM, a definitive high power electromagnetic (HPEM) conference.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20220705005033/en/

Set to run from November 13 to 17 at St. Regis Abu Dhabi, the conference marks the first high-profile event DERC is hosting after the launch of its prequalification testing facility at Tawazun Industrial Park in Abu Dhabi dedicated to a specific high-energy physics domain.

Dr. Chaouki Kasmi, Chief Researcher, Directed Energy Research Center, will offer expertise as General Chair of the organizing committee of GLOBALEM. Other expert members include Dr. Bill Radasky, of Metatech Corporation USA, and Dr. Nicolas Mora from DERC as joint Technical Program Committee co-chairs, as well as Dr. Felix Vega from DERC, Dr. Lars Ole Fichte from the Helmut-Schmidt University in Hamburg, Germany, and Dr. Jane Lehr, from the University of New Mexico, USA, as conference advisors.

Unpacking the challenges and opportunities that currently exist as well as those evolving everyday in the crucial field of electromagnetics, the conference is set to draw the interest of experts from fields as diverse as pulsed power technologies, high voltage generator, microwaveradiation, covering analytical and numerical modeling as well as experimental validation

All eyes will be trained on the Best Student Paper Award (BSPA), with award recipients receiving a certificate and a cash prize of US$500.

Likewise, the Young Scientist Award (YSA) recognizes a young researcher under 35 who has made innovative contributions in fields related to HPEM. Researchers keen to participate in the contest can nominate themselves during the submission process.

For both awards, the last date for the submission of extended abstracts online is July 1, 2022. Acceptance confirmations and nominations will be completed by August 15, and September 15 is the last date for the final review and submission of full papers and award nominations. Early bird registration is open until September 30, 2022.

Highlighting the significance of the conference for the TII ecosystem and for Abu Dhabi as well, Dr. Kasmi said: “The GLOBALEM conference promises to be a game changer for the region. High Power Electromagnetics is one of those hot areas in focus today for us at DERC, given the varied number of applications and sectors it straddles – from your everyday generators, motors, and transformers, to maglev trains, and astronomy to health care and everything in between. We are even focusing on new innovations that can treat certain types of cancer. Being able to convene so many global experts in Abu Dhabi is unprecedented and is a big deal for TII and the region.”

Second Front Systems Announces 10 Customers Prepared to Deploy on AWS European Sovereign Cloud via Game Warden® Platform3.12.2025 14:30:00 CET | Press release

Unlocks opportunity for Second Front customers to support European nations with strict data sovereignty requirements. Second Front Systems (2F), a Technology Partner in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Partner Network (APN) and Global Security and Compliance Acceleration (GSCA) Program, today announced that ten of its existing customers have prepared for deployment onto AWS European Sovereign Cloud (ESC) via its 2F Game Warden® platform. This builds on Second Front's September announcement that 2F Game Warden will serve as an on-ramp to ESC. Independent software vendors (ISVs) seeking to support European organizations face complex regulatory requirements, including Germany's C5, and the EU's Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) and NIS2 Directive. By leveraging 2F Game Warden, ISVs can inherit a number of controls and expedite compliance with security frameworks. This collaboration unlocks a pre-validated solution for ISVs to meet these stringent compliance requirements while maintai

ViaLase Announces First Patient Treated in IDE Clinical Trial Evaluating Its Femtosecond Laser Trabeculotomy for Open-Angle Glaucoma3.12.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release

Prospective, randomized controlled trial compares novel femtosecond laser procedure to selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT), advancing path to US commercialization ViaLase, Inc., a clinical-stage medical technology company pioneering incision-free, laser-based solutions for glaucoma, today announced that the first patient has been treated in its U.S. Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) clinical trial evaluating the company’s femtosecond laser trabeculotomy procedure for the management of glaucoma, a lifelong, progressive, and incurable disease that remains a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. This prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled trial evaluates the ViaLase procedure in comparison to selective laser trabeculoplasty (SLT), the current standard laser treatment for reducing intraocular pressure (IOP). This trial was designed in consultation with the FDA to achieve clearance and commercialization in the U.S. and thus represents one of the most rigorous e

Winchester Interconnect Launches LiteSPEed™ Cable: Faster, Lighter, Simpler Connectivity for Mission-Critical Systems3.12.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release

Owkin Announces International Validation Results of BRCAura: AI-Driven Screening for gBRCA Mutations Directly From Pathology Slides3.12.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release

Owkin shares promising validation results for BRCAura RUO, a clinical-grade research-use-only AI product designed to screen for germline BRCA1/2 mutations (gBRCAm) directly from digitized breast cancer pathology slides. Breast cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women worldwide. Identifying patients with germline BRCA1/2 mutations is essential for guiding targeted treatment decisions, but testing is not always consistently offered to eligible individuals, and implementation varies between countries. The model concept was initiated as part of Owkin’s ongoing partnership with Gustave Roussy and Centre Léon Bérard through PortrAIt, a French consortium dedicated to advancing precision medicine with AI-enabled digital pathology. Fostered through collaboration with AstraZeneca, as announced in October 2024, the development of BRCAura aims to accelerate and expand identification of BRCA mutations in patients with breast cancer. Strong validation across internationa
