Professor John Dudley from the Institut FEMTO-ST (UMR 6174 CNRS-Université de Franche-Comté) and Professor Frederic Dias from University College Dublin (on leave from ENS Cachan) have received an Advanced Grant of 1.8 million euros from the European Research Council (ERC).

Their project called MULTIWAVE will aim to unravel the mysteries behind freak waves in the ocean by looking at how such waves can also arise in optical systems.
