ELI - The Extreme Light Infrastructure

ELI is the world's most advanced laser infrastructure in high-power, high-intensity, and short-pulsed laser systems.

The Extreme Light Infrastructure ERIC is the world’s most advanced high-power laser research infrastructure. The international user facility, ELI ERIC, will provide access to world-class high-power, high-repetition-rate laser systems and enable cutting-edge research in physical, chemical, materials, and medical sciences, as well as breakthrough technological innovations and explore new regimes of high intensity physics. ELI ERIC will operate as a single multi-site organisation made up of two complementary facilities each with different capabilities in terms of lasers and secondary sources: ELI Beamlines in Dolní Břežany (Czech Republic) and ELI ALPS in Szeged (Hungary).

➡️ Looking back at ELISS 2025, we’re excited to highlight the experiences of our participants!

This year’s ELI - The Extreme Light Infrastructure Summer School brought together young researchers from across Europe and beyond. Among them was Sofiia Pustova from Instituto Tecnico Superior, who shared how the programme supported her growth:

“My research is focused on simulations of particle acceleration, so I was very excited to visit ELI, where these experiments are actually carried out with high-power lasers. During the lab tour, I could ask researchers directly about the challenges they face, how they set up experiments, and where the parameters I use in my simulations come from. It was a great experience that really deepened my understanding. I was able to participate thanks to the travel grant offered by the ELISS organisers, and I am very grateful for this opportunity.”

✨Her story reflects what ELISS is all about: opening doors, sparking new ideas, and creating opportunities for the next generation of scientists.

🔙 Throwing back to ELISS 2025 with inspiring stories from our participants!

We’re sharing testimonials from our participants about how the ELI - The Extreme Light Infrastructure Summer School supported their learning and growth. One of them is Wiktor Kulesza, who also won the Poster Competition 🏆 with his work titled 'Optical phase-sensitive STOC-T method for the acquisition of functional information regarding the state of organisms in-vivo'.

“I joined ELISS 2025 with the goal of bridging the gap between my metrology background and the more advanced areas of X-rays and high-power lasers. Although these were not part of my original expertise, I quickly discovered how transferable and complementary this knowledge is to my work. Over the course of the week, I’ve been able to broaden my understanding, fill in the gaps, and connect the dots with what I already knew. I joined a workshop at ELI earlier this year, and that’s when I decided I wanted to come back for ELISS, which has truly been an inspiring experience.”

We’re proud to see how ELISS continues to open new opportunities for young researchers, equipping them with knowledge, skills, and confidence for their future careers.

✨ That’s a wrap on the 10th edition of ELISS 2025!

Over the past week, more than 110 students from 22 countries came together for an inspiring programme of lectures, hands-on sessions, poster presentations, and community building. With 30 distinguished speakers - including a keynote by 2018 Nobel Laureate Donna Strickland -, the ELI - The Extreme Light Infrastructure Summer School was truly a celebration of knowledge and collaboration.

A big congratulations to the winners of this year’s Poster Competition:
🥇Wiktor Kulesza - Optical phase-sensitive STOC-T method for the acquisition of functional information regarding the state of organisms in-vivo
🥈 Alžběta Špádová - Nanoparticle-assisted LWFA and the influence of nanoparticle parameters on accelerated electrons
🥉 Hiiro Moriyama – Direct Ultrafast Capture of Kinetics in Laser-Induced Non-deterministic Growth

👏 Thank you to all participants, speakers, and organisers who made this anniversary edition such a success. The energy, ideas, and connections formed here show just how bright the future of our field is.

We look forward to seeing you next year at ELISS 2026 in Szeged! 🌍🔬💡

💥 ELI’s latest publication in the European Physical Journal Plus outlines a Radiobiology Roadmap for advancing laser-based radiotherapy.

💡 By harnessing ultrafast, high-intensity lasers, researchers at ELI - The Extreme Light Infrastructure are exploring innovative radiation modalities - from ultrahigh dose-rate microbeams to very-high-energy electrons and laser-driven neutrons. These breakthroughs could transform how we treat cancer:
✨ More precise
✨ Safer for healthy tissues
✨ Unlocking entirely new therapeutic strategies

As Prof. Dr. Katalin Hideghéty, Head of Biomedical Applications Group at the ELI ALPS Laser Research Institute, explains: “Our roadmap provides a framework for integrating fundamental research with translational medicine.”

“ELI is uniquely positioned to lead this interdisciplinary research because the ELI facilities offer complementary sources combining precision, intensity, and ultrashort temporal features in a way that can directly accelerate clinical applications and scientific discoveries," adds Daniele Margarone, ELI Beamlines Science Director.
