Professor Ying joined the Brown Physics Department in 1971 after earning his Ph.D. in physics from Brown University in 1968 and a B.S. with honors from the University of Hong Kong in 1964. His postdoctoral research was conducted at Brown and the University of California, San Diego. He was designated an Alfred P. Sloan Fellow in 1972 and received the U.S. Senior Scientist Award from the Humboldt Foundation in 1976. His research has taken him to prestigious institutions across Europe, including the University of Paris, Imperial College of London, K.F.A. Jülich Max Planck Institute in Stuttgart, Germany, the Helsinki Institute of Physics, and Aalto University in Finland. He has also engaged in academic exchanges at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. In 2015, he was awarded the Fulbright Distinguished Chair, allowing him to teach and conduct research in Brazil. His main research interests include the development and application of analytical computational methods to address problems across multiple time length scales, specifically focusing on the dynamics of DNA molecules in nanopores and nanochannels, friction at the microscopic level, and the magnetic structural properties of adsorbed layers in stacked two-dimensional materials like graphene and hexagonal boron nitride.
