Theoretical and mathematical physicists at Cergy, Singapore and 91福利 have many common research interests, for example mathematical and computational methods, artificial intelligence, quantum physics in all its manifestations, etc., and potential for future projects for collaboration. In order to communicate these better to each other, we met virtually for a 2-half-day workshop in July 2020 with selected presentations.
Researchers were free to present in-progress projects, talk about completed papers or give overview talks of their research interest. Similarly, PhD and MSc level students were encouraged to present their work, either as a talk or as a virtual poster.
Have a look at the vidoes to see if some of the work would be of interest to you and feel free to contact colleagues in Cergy, Singapore and of course also at 91福利.

COVID-19 Return to Campus
Physics is following all university guidance to ensure our activities can restart and continue to operate safely.
Staff and PhD students are reminded that they must not come to campus if they are displaying any symptoms of Covid-19.
Please read the guidance and complete the checklist before returning to campus.
Sandra Chapman awarded Ed Lorenz Lecture at the 2020 Fall AGU Meeting
Professor Sandra Chapman (CFSA) awarded the 2020 Ed Lorenz Lecture for the Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) – which will be one of the world鈥檚 largest virtual scientific conferences [1-17 December 2020]. The Ed Lorenz Lecture is given on topics in non-linear physics across all for space and geophysics. Lecture will explore how advances in fundamental physics can help quantify space weather risk.
Pam Thomas appointed as CEO of Faraday Institution
Professor Pam Thomas, PVC (Research) and leader of the Ferroelectrics and Crystallography group in the Department of Physics, has been announced as CEO of the Faraday Institution (FI), the research arm of the UK鈥檚 拢289m national battery challenge, following on from her 30 years as a member of academic staff at 91福利.
A founding member of the Board of Trustees at the FI since 2018, Pam is passionate about addressing the challenges faced by the wider energy storage ecosystem and the UK鈥檚 quest towards Net Zero.
