Dr. Guo is currently a tenured professor at Institute of Advanced Structure Technology at Being Institute of Technology (BIT). He has received B.S degree in mechanical engineering in 2010, and a Ph.D. degree in solid mechanics in 2016 from Harbin Engineering University. He also worked as a visiting scholar in Northwestern University (US) from 2014 to 2015 and worked at Tsinghua University as a postdoctoral researcher from 2016 to 2018. He joined BIT in 2019. Since 2010, he had rich experiences of research collaborations with three top groups, Prof. Jinsong Leng at Harbin Institute of Technology (2012-2016), Prof. Yonggang Huang at Northwestern University (2014-2015), Prof. Yihui Zhang at Tsinghua University (2016-2018).

Dr. Guo has published more than 50 peer-reviewed research articles in prestigious journals such as Science Robotics, Advanced Materials, Advanced Functional Materials, Composite Science and Technology, IJSS, Mechanics of Materials, et al. Now, he is also the associate editor of Programmable Materials (Cambridge Press). Some of his results have been reported by CNN, FOX, BBC, IEEE Spectrum, and the Science Communication and Achievement Transformation Center of the NSFC, and adopted his research to support the design of several aero crafts by the China Academy of Space Technology. In 2024, he was awarded the Young Changjiang Scholars.

Dr. Xiaogang Guo is interested in developing design strategies for advanced materials and structures with tunable properties, including metamaterials with tunable thermal expansion, 3D structures that can switch their configurations actively under the external stimulus, flexible/stretchable sensors, and their corresponding shape and pressure feedback system.
