Workshop and Conference：
- Sino-German Workshop on Novel Concepts in Disordered and Interacting Quantum Systems, Hangzhou, March 11-18, 2007
- Mini-Workshop on Topological Quantum Computation, Hangzhou, July 6-7, 2006
Teaching:
- Fundamentals of Semiconductor Physics, Fall 2007

Research Interest:
I am primarily interested in theoretical condensed matter physics, in particular disordered and interacting quantum systems, including nanoscale and mesoscopic systems and strongly correlated systems. The focus of my current research is the fractional quantum Hall effect and topological quantum computation. I have interest in the interaction between physics and computer science and engineering, including spintronics or quantum computation on the hardware side, as well as parallel and high-performance computation on the software side.Academic Background:
