Introduction

Zhen-Sheng Yuan, born in July of 1976, is now professor of physics at the Hefei National Laboratory of Physical Sciences at the Microscale. He received a BSc in 1998 and a PhD in 2003 both from the University of Science and Technology of China. During 2006 to 2011, he had been working at the Heidelberg University as a PostDoc, an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow, and a senior scientist (when he was a CoPI of a couple of projects) successively. He was appointed professor of physics at USTC in 2011.
His research field is quantum manipulation of light and cold atoms. Highlights of his research achievements include the experimental demonstration of a quantum repeater node and the manipulation of atomic spin entanglements in optical lattices. He has more than 40 publications in peer-reviewed journals including Nature, Nature Physics, and Phys. Rev. Lett (see google scholar: https://scholar.google.com.hk/citations?hl=en&user=3T3dFmsAAAAJ). He is the principle investigator of a NNSFC key project, a key project of MOST.
