Professor Hong Jin Pyo is a Distinguished Professor at Hanyang University, affiliated with both the Physics and Nano Semiconductor Engineering Departments. He is also working as a dean of Natural Science at Hanyang University. He completed his education at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), earning his Ph.D. in Physics in 1992 after obtaining his Bachelor's degree in 1987.

Professor Hong Jin Pyo focuses on cutting-edge areas in physics and engineering, such as spintronics, advanced memory systems, semiconductor technology, and new ways to harvest and store energy. His research includes studying how spin-based technologies can improve artificial intelligence devices, like creating materials that act like brain cells. He's also working on making memory storages, such as SOT/STT-MRAM & ReRAM-based AI, novel SOM (selector-only-memory), oxide semiconductor-based capless 2T-0C frame and defect analyses, more efficient and reliable, exploring how different materials can switch on and off to store data. He's also interested in how to generate power from sources like movement or light, especially using 1D/2D hybrid materials that can be woven into fabrics. This could lead to clothes or materials that can charge devices or monitor health. To support his work, Professor Hong uses special tools and techniques to closely examine how materials work at a very small scale, helping to invent new technologies and improve existing ones.

Prof. Li is a professor in the physics department at the University of Texas-Austin. She received her Ph.D. at the University of Michigan in 2003 and worked as a postdoctoral researcher at JILA, Colorado. Since establishing her research group at the University of Texas in 2007, she has worked in several research areas including low-dimensional semiconductors, most recently in atomically thin van der Waals materials, magnetic materials, and nanophotonics. She has received several awards including the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers in the U. S. and a Sloan Fellowship. She was a Humboldt research fellow at the Technical University of Berlin between 2013-2015. She is a fellow of the American Physics Society and OPTICA.
