Professor Mingbin Yu is a Professor at the Shanghai Institute of Microsystems and Information Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Senior Vice President of the Shanghai Industrial Technology Research Institute, and a committee member of the National Key R&D Programme.
Professor Yu obtained his PhD from Xi’an Jiaotong University in 1995. He worked as a Professor at the Institute of Microelectronics, A*STAR, Singapore from 2000 to 2017. During his work at A*STAR, he was the founder and academic leader for silicon photonics research and contributed to establishing the world-recognized research centre of photonics. He was awarded the Singapore Presidential Award in 2010.
Professor Yu’s research interests cover silicon-based photonics and optoelectronics integration technology and application. From 2017, Professor Yu held a number of projects, including the key R&D research programme of Shanghai, and the research programme from the Ministry of Science and Technology of China. He has published more than 300 research papers and 60 authorized patents (8 international patents) in high-level international academic journals and conferences including Nature, Physical Review Letter, and Applied Physics Letter.
Hao Zhang
Dr. Hao Zhang is a Professor at Suzhou Laboratory (National Laboratory). Main research interests include application-specific high-performance computing systems, high-performance AI chips, AI-driven materials computing, and high-performance interconnect network design. He has published over 40 academic papers in top conferences related to high-performance computing, such as SC, CLUSTER, and ASP-DAC, and has applied for/been granted over 20 patents,
received the Best Paper Award at the 2013 Asia-Pacific Design Automation
Conference.
Before returning to China, he studied and worked in Japan for 10 years,
graduating with a Ph.D. from Keio University in 2014. He subsequently worked at world-class research institutions, including the RCCS and the BDR at RIKEN, under the supervision of Professor Makoto Taiji, a pioneer in heterogeneous scientific computing and an academician of the Japan Engineering Academy.
During the time at RIKEN, he participated in the development of the world’s fastest supercomputer “Fugaku”, the molecular dynamics dedicated SoC chip and its MDGRAPE series supercomputers, as well as several deep learning hardware accelerators.
Kenan Song
Dr. Kenan Song is the Centre Head of the Centre for Theory and Intelligent Computation (CTIC), Beijing Graphene Institute (BGI), China.
Dr. Kenan Song has comprehensive knowledge of quantum mechanics and many-body physics, particularly the quantum transport theory, linear response theory and Kubo formula. He deeply understands quantum transport, spin dynamics, spin-orbit torque phenomenon and the quantum anomalous hall effect (QAHE) for both electron and magnon in condensed matter physics.
Dr. Kenan Song is an expert in computational physics based on the density functional theory (DFT) method and numerical calculation. He can use many DFT codes to conduct scientific research, such as VASP, Quantum Espresso, CASTEP, and Wannier90.
