Prof Miroshnichenko obtained his PhD in 2003 from the Max-Planck Institute for Physics of Complex Systems in Dresden, Germany. In 2004 he moved to Australia to join the Nonlinear Physics Centre at the Australian National University. During that time, he made fundamentally important contributions to the field of photonic crystals and bringing the concept of the Fano resonances to nanophotonics. In 2007 he was awarded by Australian Postdoctoral and in 2011 by Future Fellowships from the Australian Research Council. In 2017 he has moved to the University of New South Wales Canberra and became UNSW Scientia Fellow.  In 2019 Prof Miroshnichenko was recognised as one of the Highly Cited Researchers by the Web of Science Group. The topics of his research are nonlinear nanophotonics, nonlinear optics, resonant interaction of light with nanoclusters, including optical nanoantennas and metamaterials.
