Graduate Lu Trong Khiem Nguyen has been appointed Lecturer at the University of Glasgow. He has started his new position as Lecturer (with tenure, equivalent to a professorship at a German university) in Multiscale Materials on 5 January 2022. His research focuses on multiscale theories and related numerical methods to study the behaviour of heterogeneous materials and metamaterials in a dynamic regime.

Lu Trong Khiem Nguyen got his Bachelor's degree in Mathematics & Computer Sciences from the University of Science, HCM City, in 2010 and his Master's degree in Computational Engineering from VGU in 2012. He graduated from VGU with the best final average grade ever obtained in the Computational Engineering program both at RUB and VGU and published part of the results of his Master thesis with his supervisor Professor Le Khanh Chau 2013 in the scientific paper "Slope modulation of waves governed by sine–Gordon equation" in the international journal "Communications in Nonlinear Science and Numerical Simulation".

In 2013, also under the supervision of Prof. Le Khan Chau, Lu Trong Khiem Nguyen continued his academic career at RUB with a PhD study on the topic of "Application of Variational-Asymptotic Methods to a Set of Nonlinear Equations" as a DAAD scholarship holder. Lu Trong Khiem Nguyen successfully completed his doctoral thesis in 2016, after only three years of processing, an absolutely outstanding achievement that led to him receiving an offer of a postdoctoral position from the University of Stuttgart even before he had finished his thesis.

During his time in Stuttgart, Lu Trong Khiem Nguyen spent time as a Research Fellow at the University of Edinburgh, UK and at the University of Pennsylvania, USA. This was followed by positions as a research associate at the Helmholtz-Zentrum, Geesthacht Centre for Materials and Coastal Research, and as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at ETH Zürich.

We warmly congratulate Lu Trong Khiem Nguyen on his new position.
