The 12th Topical Meeting on "Photorefractive Materials, Effects, and Devices - Control of Light and Matter" was a conference focusing on the latest developments in nonlinear control of light and matter, emphasizing new photorefractive and nano-sized nonlinear optical materials, effects from light-induced Bragg-gratings up to optical control of material engineering as well as applications in holography, and nonlinear wave guiding. Continuing the spirit of the preceding PR 07 conference to outgrow the traditional bi-annual meeting on Photorefractive Materials, Effects, and Devices, the meeting has expanded its topic to a series of light-induced nonlinear effects and applications that are at the forefront of nano-structured materials and photonic applications. There were about 150 oral and poster presentations that guaranteed a stimulating conference program. The modern Telekom Meeting Center at Bad Honnef provided a setting in a rural landscape that emphasized discussions, scientific exchange, and fruitful contacts on a highly international basis. A scenic boat trip on the river Rhine to the pretty city Linz and a trip to the Dragon Rock gave also ample space for information contacts.
