"I am 35 years old and I come from China. I obtained my Ph.D. from Peking University and worked with Professor Frank Wilczek as a Postdoc for three years and with Professor Emil Bergholtz for half year. After that I found a faculty position in China and I am now an associated professor at Shanghai Jiao Tong University."
What did you think of the Summer School in 2024?
"The Quantum Connections Summer School is super great. It brings the best people including Nobel Laureates to give lectures to junior researchers. Not only knowledge but also the way how great physicist think, really helps the students and myself.
What are your future plans?
"My future plan is to keep working at the frontier of physics and building connections with the best people in the world, hopefully to make important contributions to science."
What are your recommendations for physics students at Fysikum?
"I encourage them to learn from the great physicists. Fysikum at Stockholm University has the advantage to host many great physicists in the world, partially because Sweden is the country where Nobel prizes are given. It’s a great chance for students to learn as much as they can."
