Liu Haiqing, Researcher

Researcher and Doctoral Supervisor, Institute of Plasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences
Distinguished Professor, ShanghaiTech University

Born in 1977, he received his Ph.D. from Kyushu University, Japan, in 2011 and has worked in the Tokamak Physics Experiment Division of the Institute of Plasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, since 2001. He has long been engaged in far-infrared/terahertz diagnostics of controlled nuclear fusion plasmas and in research on core confinement and transport physics, with deep involvement in the development and engineering practice of diagnostic systems for major science facilities such as the EAST fully superconducting tokamak. He is one of the company's two chief scientists.
