Xuehao Ding
Ph.D. Student in Applied Physics, admitted Autumn 2018
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsI am an Applied Physics PhD candidate in Baccus lab co-advised by Surya Ganguli. My research focuses on building encoding models of the retina with various biophysical properties especially for natural scenes and answering scientific questions based on computational models. I believe that the core problem in the field of sensory systems is to understand the representation manifold and I am achieving this goal with methods of differential geometry, deep learning, statistical physics, etc.

Ian Fisher
Professor of Applied Physics and, by courtesy, of Materials Science and Engineering
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsOur research focuses on the study of quantum materials with unconventional magnetic & electronic ground states & phase transitions. Emphasis on design and discovery of new materials. Recent focus on use of strain as a probe of, and tuning parameter for, a variety of electronic states. Interests include unconventional superconductivity, quantum phase transitions, nematicity, multipolar order, instabilities of low-dimensional materials and quantum magnetism.
