DESCRIPTION: The wealth of information available through spectroscopic mea
 ns has lead to deep insights into the spatiotemporal evolution of complex 
 systems.  In one-dimensional spectroscopy\, the system response is highly 
 averaged and information lost.  Adding dimensions allows one to disperse i
 nformation into higher\, and hence\, less dense dimensions albeit at the c
 ost of longer acquisition times and increased experimental complexity. Thi
 s talk will focus on applications of single-shot two-dimensional photon ec
 ho spectroscopy to exciton dynamics in the light harvesting complex\, LH2\
 , from purple bacteria and semiconductor quantum dots.   Future applicatio
 n of these and other related optical methods to proteomics\, biophysics\, 
 and chemical dynamics will also be discussed.
