Vincent Wanie

Vincent Wanie is a Researcher at the Center for Free-Electron Laser Science (CFEL) within Deutsches Elektronen-Synchrotron DESY, Hamburg, Germany. His work focuses on developing ultrafast laser-based technologies for time-resolved experiments, particularly few-femtosecond UV light pulses and electron/nuclear dynamics in photoexcited states of matter.

• Academic Career: Scientist (since 2021), Postdoctoral Researcher (2020–2021) at CFEL/DESY; PhD (2015–2020) and Fast-Track Master's (2014–2015) at INRS-ÉMT, Canada.
• Education: PhD in Energy and Materials Sciences (2020), thesis on few-femtosecond dynamics; visiting PhD at CFEL (2018–2020) and Politecnico di Milano (2016–2018).

His research spans ultrafast laser technology, attosecond physics, and molecular dynamics. Key areas include high-order harmonic generation, plasmonic field sampling, and real-time tracking of electron/nuclear motion in molecules. Recent publications highlight advancements in deep-UV/XUV pulse generation and time-resolved molecular spectroscopy.

• Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarship for PhD research.

Wanie's work contributes to refining attosecond science applications in chemical and material systems, with a focus on compact laser setups and international collaborations through his visiting positions at CFEL and Politecnico di Milano.
