Patrice Genevet received his Ph.D. degree at the université Côte d'Azur, France in 2009 on localized spatial solitons in semiconductor lasers and amplifiers. He did five years as a research fellow (2009-2014) in the Capasso group (SEAS, Harvard University) in collaboration with Prof. M.O. Scully (Texas A&M University). In 2014, he obtained the position of senior research scientist at ASTAR, Singapore. In 2015, He joined CNRS as ¡®Chargé de Recherche¡¯. He is the recipient of several awards, including the Highly Cited Researcher by the Web of Science (every year since 2018), the ERC Starting Grant 2015 on "Functional flat optical components and applications," the 2017 Aimé-Cotton Price from the French Physical Society, the 2019 ERC proof of Concept, and the 2021 Fabry-De Gramont Price from the French Optical Society. His research activities concern the development of optical metamaterials, passive and active metasurfaces, and their applications and integration in optoelectronic devices. He owns 6 patents, more than 100 publications and H factor of 60 (Google Scholar).
