Shu Zhang

Assistant Professor (Transitional) of the Collective Dynamics and Quantum Transport Unit. Shu’s research reveals dynamical and transport phenomena in various forms of quantum matter, from quantum and topological materials to synthetic quantum matter and hybrid quantum platforms, to explore emergent many-body dynamics and propose their spintronic, electronic, and quantum-information functionalities. Her research combines theoretical approaches in the fields of quantum many-body physics, mesoscopic physics, and quantum optics.
