About the Presenter: Aaron Strangfeld from European Space Agency

Born in Stuttgart, Germany, Aaron Strangfeld completed his Bachelor's and Master's degrees in physics from Humboldt-University in Berlin in 2018 and 2020, respectively. His career in laser technology began in 2017 at TOPTICA, working on laser diodes, followed by a role at ColVisTec in 2018 focusing on laser spectroscopy applications. In 2019, Aaron moved to Singapore to conduct research at the Centre for Quantum Technologies and support technology developments on gravimeters at Atomionics. In 2020, he returned to Berlin to work at the Ferdinand Braun Institute, developing compact laser systems for quantum technology in space. In 2021, he joined the European Space Agency (ESA) to work on Laser Ranging and Optical Atomic Clocks for navigation satellites.  Since 2022, he has been coordinating quantum sensing activities for Earth observation applications and leading the quantum-enhanced sensing efforts within ESA's Quantum Technology Cross-Cutting Initiative.
