Dr. Xudong CHEN received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering from Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China, in 1999 and 2001, respectively, and the Ph.D. degree in EECS from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA, in 2005. Since 2005, he has been with the National University of Singapore, Singapore, where he is currently a Professor.

His research interests include mainly electromagnetic wave theories and applications, with a focus on inverse problems and computational imaging. He is interested in computational imaging algorithms across the whole electromagnetic spectrum, spanning electrostatics, microwave, millimeter-wave, visible light, and X-ray. He has published 160 journal papers on inverse scattering problems, sensing and data fusion, material parameter retrieval, microscopy, and optical encryption. He has authored the book Computational Methods for Electromagnetic Inverse Scattering (Wiley-IEEE, 2018).

Dr. Chen is a Fellow of IEEE and Fellow of Electromagnetics Academy. He was a recipient of the Young Scientist Award by the Union Radio Scientifique Internationale in 2010 and a recipient of the Ulrich L. Rohde Innovative Conference Paper Award at ICCEM 2019. He was an Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Microwave Theory and Techniques during 2015-2019 and has been the Associate Editor of the IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing and the IEEE Journal of Electromagnetics, RF and Microwave in Medicine and Biology since 2020. He has been members of organizing committees of more than 10 conferences, serving as General Chair, TPC Chair, Award Committee Chair, etc. He was the Chair of IEEE Singapore MTT/AP Joint Chapter in 2018.
