Assistant Professor Ho Wen Wei is from the Department of Physics at the National University of Singapore (NUS), where he holds the title of Presidential Young Professor, and is also the recipient of the Singapore National Research Foundation Fellowship 2023. He is also a CQT Fellow at the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT). His research focuses on quantum many-body physics and quantum information science, with a particular emphasis on developing theories to understand the dynamics of quantum many-body systems. His work includes the study of novel nonequilibrium quantum many-body phenomena, such as prethermalization in Floquet systems and quantum many-body scars. He also collaborates with experimental groups to explore quantum simulation possibilities and develop protocols for enhancing the capabilities of quantum information science platforms.

Assistant Professor Tedrick Thomas Salim Lew is from the Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. He has received several awards for his research, including the ASEAN-Korea Next Innovator Award (2025), NUS Presidential Young Professorship (2022), and Singapore National Research Foundation Fellowship (2023). Research in his Lew Lab bridges nanotechnology, plant biology, chemistry, and engineering to create tools that make plants smarter and tougher. Specifically, his group is interested in engineering nanocarriers and nanosensors for plant biotechnology applications. The latest innovation from his lab, a core-shell microneedle patch for plants is an example of smart nanomaterials used to improve the efficiency, resilience and sustainability of agricultural practices.

Asst Dean (Outreach and Special Projects)
Dr. Lee Wee Siang Vincent joined the Department of Materials Science & Engineering as a Lecturer in August 2021. He obtained his Ph.D. degree in Materials Science & Engineering at National University of Singapore in 2016, and his research focuses on the fabrication of materials for energy storage devices.
He has been teaching undergraduate course in Materials Science & Engineering since 2019, which primarily focused on laboratory-based modules. He has adopted an integrative and inquiry-based pedagogy in laboratory-based modules, and it has triggered the interest and encouraged undergraduates to enter the research field.
