Prof. Shuiquan Deng was awarded a PhD degree by the Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter (FJIRSM), Chinese Academy of Sciences, in 1992. He was appointed an assistant professorship and an associate professorship at FJIRSM in 1992 and 1995, respectively. From 1995 to 1996, he worked at the University of Geneva as a postdoctor. From 1996 to 2014, he had worked in Max-Planck-Institute for Solid State Research at Stuttgart as a guest scientist in the first two years, and then as theoretical group leader of Abt. Simon in the BAT-IIa and BAT-Ib staff scientist position, respectively. Since 2014, he has been appointed a full professor and PI at FJIRSM, Chinese Academy of Sciences. His research activities involve analytic and numeric studies on the relations between multi-scale structures of solid-state materials and their properties, such as superconductivity, optical, multiferroic, and symmetry/topology-dependent properties.
