应国际功能材料量子设计中心的邀请，11月8日，来自Department of Physics & NUS Graduate，School for Integrative Sciences and Engineering，National University of Singapore的Prof. Li Baowen前来实验室进行学术交流与访问，并为师生们做“Nano-scale thermal transport and Phononics”的学术报告。

　　Professor Li received his B.Sci (1985) from Nanjing University, M. Sci (1989) from Institute of Acoustics, Chinese Academy of Science, Beijing. In 1990 he received the Max-Planck Scholarship and went to Germany for his Ph. D study. He finished his Ph. D thesis within two years, and got the Dr.rer.nat degree in 1992 from Universität of Oldenburg. He joined NUS in July 2000 as an assistant professor, and promoted to associate professor with tenure in 2003 and full professor in 2007. He is currently Executive Director, NUS Graduate School for Integrative Sciences and Engineering (NGS), and Director of Centre for Computational Science and Engineering.
　　He has published more than 170 papers in refereed journals including 24 in Phys. Rev. Lett. and delivered more than 110 keynote and invited talks. He has been awarded National Science Award 2005, Singapore, and 2005 Asia Achievement Award of Overseas Chinese Physics Association (OCPA), 2007 IOP World Scientific Prize and Medal. His research interests include but not limited to heat conduction in low dimensional systems, energy transport in nano scale materials, thermoelectric effect in nanostructures, effect of quantum chaos on quantum computation, complex networks and systems biology, non-equilibrium statistical mechanics, inverse scattering problem, waves propagation and scattering in random/turbulent media etc.
