Introduction to Tsung-Dao Lee Institute
Prof. Tsung-Dao Lee envisioned the establishment of a leading-edge fundamental science research institution in Shanghai, with the expectation that it could radically transform the landscape of scientific research, cultivate a new generation of visionary scientific leaders, and drive groundbreaking discoveries that significantly contribute to humanity’s future. To achieve this vision, Tsung-Dao Lee Institute (TDLI) was founded in November 2016.
Located in the Zhangjiang Science City of Shanghai, TDLI focuses on three key research areas: Astronomy and Astrophysics, Particle and Nuclear Physics, and Condensed Matter Physics. We are implementing the TDLI 2035 Vision, concentrating on the fundamental scientific question of "the origins and evolution of matter under extreme cosmic conditions," striving for significant breakthroughs in basic scientific research.
We are equipped with world-class research platforms, including a Laboratory Astrophysics Platform, a Topological Materials Platform, and a High-Performance Computing Platform. Additionally, we are advancing cutting-edge observational projects across the country, such as the PandaX dark matter detector and the TRIDENT neutrino telescope. TDLI brings together over 130 researchers from 17 countries, with nearly 40% being international scholars, forming a highly international research team.
Looking ahead to 2035, TDLI will continue to explore the forefront of global science, striving to become an important engine of global technological innovation. We warmly invite outstanding talents passionate about research to join us in pursuing the limits of science and shaping the future of fundamental science.
