Dr. Jia Wang earned his Ph.D. in Physics from JILA and the University of Colorado Boulder in 2012. He has since held research positions at multiple institutions. From 2012 to 2015, he was a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Physics at the University of Connecticut. Following this, he moved to Australia, where he joined Swinburne University of Technology as a postdoctoral research fellow. In 2018, Dr. Wang was honored with the ARC DECRA fellowship and later became an ARC Future Fellow in 2024.
Dr. Wang's research explores the intricate relationship between few- and many-body quantum physics, encompassing various areas of atomic, molecular, and optical physics, as well as condensed matter physics. His work spans various topics, including quantum scattering, Efimov physics, polaron physics, quantum droplets, many-body localization, and time crystals. Dr. Wang's contributions aim to deepen our understanding of complex quantum phenomena and push the boundaries of theoretical and experimental physics.
