Dr. Baile ZHANG is currently a Professor of Physics in the School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences. Before he joined NTU in 2011, he was a postdoctoral associate at Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology Centre in Singapore. He received his Ph.D. in 2009 from MIT, following his B.S. degree in 2003 and M.S. degree in 2006 from Tsinghua University in Beijing, all majored in Electrical Engineering. His current research interests include waves in complex media, metamaterials, and photonic/acoustic crystals. He was awarded the 2012 MIT Technology Review TR35 Global Young Innovators Award, the 2014 Young Scientist Award of Singapore National Academy of Science, and the 2016 IPS World Scientific (Physics Research) Medal and Prize. In 2020, with Prof. Nikolay Zheludev and Prof. Chong Yidong, he was awarded Singapore's President's Science Award.
