Atomic and optical tests of Lorentz symmetry

This article reports on the Fourth Meeting on Lorentz and CPT Symmetry, CPT '07, held in August 2007 in Bloomington, Indiana, USA. The focus is on recent tests of Lorentz symmetry using atomic and optical physics. Results presented at the meeting include improved bounds on Lorentz violation in the photon sector, and the first bounds on several coefficients in the gravity sector.
