Rich Mildren is Associate Professor and Australian Research Council Future Fellow at the Macquarie University?s Department of Physics and Astronomy in Australia. He obtained his Ph.D. in plasma kinetics of high power metal vapor lasers in 1997. His postdoctoral research has included laser and plasma interactions, power scaling of discharge sources and wavelength versatile solid-state lasers. From 2005, he joined Med-Aesthetic Solutions International Pty Ltd to lead R&D in high energy wavelength-switchable lasers aesthetic medical market. Since returning to Macquarie University in 2008, he has pioneered research in diamond Raman lasers. He has authored over 70 journal papers and has several patents in laser and light source technology. James Rabeau is currently a Director in data analytics at Deloitte, Australia. Prior to that he was Associate Professor and Australian Research Council Future Fellow in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Macquarie University, Sydney. He obtained his Ph.D. from Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, Scotland on the subject of diamond chemical vapour deposition and cavity ring-down spectroscopy in diamond forming microwave plasmas. He moved to the University of Melbourne where he continued his research in diamond fabrication and applications of single colour centres. He joined Macquarie University in 2007 and built an international reputation for diamond-based applications in quantum science and biological imaging.
