Biography
JIA Suotang is a professor and doctoral advisor at State Key Laboratory of Quantum Optics and Quantum Optics Devices, Institute of Laser Spectroscopy, Shanxi University. He is the Chief Scientist of the National Major Scientific Research Program (973), Project Leader of the National Disciplinary Innovation and Talent Introducing Program ("111 Program"), Director of the International Joint Research Center of the Ministry of Science and Technology, Director of the Collaborative Innovation Center of Extreme Optics, Experts enjoying special allowances from the State Council. He was selected into the Cross-century Excellent Talents Training Program of the Ministry of Education in 2002. He has many social part-time jobs, including Vice Chairman of the Optical Society of China, Chairman of the Optical Society of Shanxi Province, Expert of the General Expert Group of the Ministry of Science and Technology "Quantum Regulation and Quantum Information", Member of the Department of Physics and Management of the Science and Technology Commission of the Ministry of Education, Deputy Director of the National Physics Teaching Steering Committee of the Ministry of Education member.
Jia Suotang, borned in Qinyuan County, Shanxi Province in 1958, graduated from the Department of Physics of Shanxi University in 1982, obtained a master's degree in optics from Shanxi University in 1989, and obtained a Ph.D in optics from East China Normal University in 1994. From 1995 to 1996, he was a visiting scholar engaging in the research of laser spectroscopy in the Laser Physics Laboratory of Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS). From January to April 2005, he was a visiting scholar at the Laboratoire Aimé Cotton of CNRS, implementing research on ultracold atoms and molecules. He successively went to the University of Maryland, Yale University and University of Connecticut for academic visits and cooperative research. In 1994, he was appointed as the director of the Department of Electronics of Shanxi University. In 1997, he was appointed as a professor of Shanxi University.
