Bio:
Dr Gao joined the Department of Nuclear Engineering and Radiological Sciences in University of Michigan as a full professor in 2014. Prof. Gao’s current work mainly focuses on ion-solid interaction, irradiation damage, detector materials, nanostructures properties, Li+ ion battery, development and application of multi-scale modeling of materials, and so on. His group has employ a variety of computational tools to carry out multi-scale simulations, including quantum-mechanical calculations, ab-initio molecular dynamics, time-dependent density functional theory, tight-binding calculations, molecular static and dynamic calculations, monte-Carlo annealing simulations and self-consistent accelerated molecular dynamics. Prof. Gao has published more than 350 refereed journal papers, including PRLNature Communication, Energy & Environmental Science, Nano letter, ACS Nano, PNAS, Advanced Materials, Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Acta Materialia, PRB, APL, JAP, etc. He has been an associated editor of AIP (American Institute Physics) Advances, editorial board of Scientific Reports and a guest editor for a number of journals. He is in international advisory committee for international conference on Computer Simulations of Radiation Effects in Solids, Program committee of international conference on hard x-rays, γ-rays and neutron detector physics, and the secretary-general of the 16th international conference on fusion reactor materials.
