Bio
Dr. Mbaye Diouf is a Tenure Track Assistant Professor at the School of Physics and Astronomy at Rochester Institute of Technology RIT. Dr. Mbaye Diouf received his master and PhD in physics from University of Cheikh Anta Diop UCAD, Senegal. During his PhD Dr. Diouf conducting research in Higher School of Communication of Tunis, Tunisia in the field of highly nonlinear fiber optics for supercontinuum generation supported by International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP). After completing his PhD, he served as a research fellow under the Fellowship Training and Research in Italian Laboratories (TRIL) program at ICTP in Trieste, Italy.
He served for several years at the School of Engineering at Brown University in Rhode Island, USA, initially as a Postdoctoral Researcher and later as a Senior Research Associate. During this time, he played a pivotal role in the design and construction of the PROBE Lab, which he led almost single-handedly, while also training and mentoring many of the lab’s students. His current and future research will broadly target optics and photonics, including nonlinear optics, structured light, ultrafast optics, light sheet microscopy, multiphoton microscopy, optical sensing and supercontinuum laser sources.
Dr. Diouf reviews regularly for journals such as Optics Letters, Optics Express, Applied Optics, Scientific Report, and Nature Photonics.
