At this years International Frequency Control Symposium Kerr frequency combs are present with a focus session on Wednesday, 11 May starting at 10:10am and ending at 12:10pm. This session features the following presentations:

• Kerry Vahala, Caltech:  New Directions for Optical Frequency Division: Soliton Microcombs and Electro-Optical-Modulation 
• Andrey Matsko, OEwaves: Turn-Key Operation and Stabilization of Kerr Frequency Combs
• Michal Lipson, Columbia:  High Quality On-Chip Resonators for Frequency Combs
• Erwan Lucas, École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL): Low Noise Microwave Generation via Temporal Soliton Formation in a Crystalline Optical Microresonator with a Narrow Linewidth Laser

The obvious choice would be to take the name of the research field because after all it is a blog for the research field. But then, what is the name of our research field? So I did a bit of research. Here is a list on names that are used in literature:
