Welcome to the Gao Group!

We are an interdisciplinary team of chemists, physicists, and materials scientists driven by a passion for ultrafast science. Our mission is to uncover the microscopic interactions that govern material properties and to control them using advanced light sources.

We are actively recruiting postdocs, graduate students, and undergraduate students. If your research interests align with ours, we would love to hear from you and discuss potential projects!
