BiographyMeng Pang, born in 1983, graduated from Hong Kong PolyU with doctor degree in 2011 and then worked as postdoc fellow in Prof. Xiaoyi Bao’s group at Ottawa University. From 2013 to 2019, he worked as postdoc fellow and team leader in Russell’s division, Max-Planck Institute for Science of Light (MPL), Germany. In 2019, as senior researcher and professor he joined Shanghai Institute of Optics and Fine Mechanics (SIOM), Chinese Academy of Sciences, China. His research topics focus on ultrafast fiber lasers, photonic crystal fiber, nonlinear fiber optics and soliton dynamics. He has published more than 30 journal papers in optical journals, including Nature Photonics, Nature Communications, Light S&A and Optica.
