Xiaoqing Pan is an internationally recognized materials scientist and electron microscopy expert due to his pioneering development and applications of novel transmission electron microscopy (TEM) methods for probing the atomic scale structure, properties and dynamic behaviors of materials. His work has led to the discoveries of new materials and novel functionalities. Pan has received the National Science Foundation’s CAREER Award and the Chinese NSF’s Outstanding Young Investigator Award. He is an elected fellow of the American Ceramic Society, American Physical Society, Microscopy Society of America, and the Materials Research Society. He has published over 400 peer-reviewed scientific papers in high impact journals such as Nature, Science, and Nature Materials and has a high citation rate. Pan is currently the Henry Samueli Endowed Chair in Engineering, professor of materials science and engineering, and professor of physics and astronomy. In addition, he is the inaugural director of the Irvine Materials Research Institute (IMRI), and founding director of the Center for Complex Active Materials (CCAM – an NSF MRSEC). Previously, he was a professor and the Richard F. and Eleanor A. Towner Endowed Chair of Engineering and director of the Electron Microbeam Analysis Laboratory at the University of Michigan.
