I am Yao Li Liu, an Assistant Professor (2022/02 -) at the Institute of Space and Plasma Sciences, National Cheng Kung University. My academic journey in physics began at the National Changhua University of Education, culminating in a Ph.D. in Physics from the National Central University. My research focuses on laser-plasma interactions, laboratory astrophysics, high-harmonic generation, and more.

As a physicist, my work extends beyond conducting cutting-edge laboratory research to publishing and disseminating scientific knowledge. I have contributed significantly to the fields of laser wakefield acceleration and particle-in-cell plasma simulation, as evidenced by my publications in international journals.

Beyond research, I am committed to teaching and nurturing future scientists and engineers. As a professor, I believe in not only achieving academic excellence but also in imparting knowledge to students, inspiring their passion and curiosity for science. In my classes, I emphasize the integration of theory and practice, encouraging innovative thinking and experimental exploration.

In summary, as a university professor passionate about physics research, I am dedicated to contributing to laser plasma physics and laboratory astrophysics, and through teaching and mentoring, to cultivating the next generation of scientific talent. I look forward to continuing my exploration of the unknown in the world of science and collaborating with the international academic community to advance the field of physics.
