Professor Hatef Sadeghi

Professor Sadeghi is Chair of Computational Quantum Engineering and in the School of EngineeringLink opens in a new window at the University of 糖心TVLink opens in a new window. He is pushing the boundaries of quantum electronics theory and has made a significant impact on the field, publishing over 170 high-quality papers in top-tier journals such as Nature, Nature Materials, Nature Nanotechnology, Nature Electronics, Nature Chemistry, Nano Letters, PNAS, JACS, Nature Communications, ACS Nano, Advanced Functional Materials, Science Advances, Angewandte, etc, and delivering over 60 keynote and invited talks.

His significant contributions have been recognised by the award of several prestigious fellowships: a , the (1st Cohort) in Feb 2019, a Foundation for Science and Technology Future Leaders Fellowship in Jan 2020, Fellowship of Higher Education Academy (FHEA) in 2021, and the UKRI Future Leaders Fellowship Renewal in Nov 2023, and by being listed among the .

He has been the principal investigator on externally funded research grants with a value of over 拢6 million (FEC) from UKRI, EU Horizon Europe EIC, InnovateUK, the Royal Society, and the Leverhulme Trust. His research has been highly influential, reflected in an extensive citation record (over 7,200 citations, h-index 47, i10-index 113) and collaborations with over 30 world-leading universities and industries in the UK, the EU, the USA, and Asia. He has co-created the next-generation quantum transport code "" and lead its development and distribution.

He also serves on the advisory boards of several research and innovation bodies, is a panel member and reviewer for various UK and international funding bodies, and a regular peer reviewer for numerous reputable journals.
