International Advisory Board
The Center has installed since the start a Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) consisting of 3 outstanding external scientists. The SAB is chaired by the two directors of the Center and meets yearly to review the progress of the Center’s activities.
- Keith Nelson - Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Boston, USA
Keith Nelson’s research interests are in ultrafast optics, coherent spectroscopy, and coherent control over collective dynamics and structure in condensed matter. He currently holds the position of Haslam and Dewey Professor of Chemistry and leads the group for “Coherent Spectroscopy and Coherent Control of Complex Materials” at MIT.
- Jacqueline Bloch - Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (C2N) Université Paris-Saclay, CNRS, Paris, France
Jacqueline Bloch is CNRS research director at C2N and also teaches at the École Polytechnique and the Institut d’Optique Graduate School. She was awarded with an ERC Advanced Grant in 2021. Her research focus at using polariton lattices to explore three major problems of modern physics : the physics of non-equilibrium interfaces and their universal scaling laws, non-linear topology and quantum magnetism.
- Yoshi Maeno - Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan
Yoshi Maneo is Professor at the Department of Physics of the Kyoto University and leads the “Solid State Physics Lab”. His fields of speciality are low-temperature physics, condensed-matter Physics and superconductivity in ruthenates.
