Phillips spoke about his work as a leading researcher in laser cooling and trapping of atoms during the Director of Innovation's distinguished lecture series. These fundamental studies are used to develop applications for new kinds of physics measurements and processes such as high resolution spectroscopy, atomic clocks, atomic collisions, atom optics, bio-molecular interactions, and atomic-scale and nano-scale fabrication.
