Watch Ben Eggleton announce the winner of the Future Luminary Award

Congratulations to Wen Xiong, Winner of the 2020 Future Luminary Award

Wen Xiong was born in Hubei, China in 1990. She received her Bachelor's degree from Optical Engineering at Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China. After graduation, she went to Yale University for her Ph.D. study in Applied Physics. Her research interests are physics and applications of complex photonics systems. In 2019, she received her Ph.D. degree with a thesis on spatial degrees of freedom in multimode fibers. She joined Facebook Reality Labs as an optical scientist after graduation and started her research on optical systems for augmented reality.
