Lei Shu is an associate researcher of Department of Physics, Fudan University. Dr. Shu obtained her Bachelor degree (1999) and Master degree (2002) from Department of Physics, Tongji University. She obtained her Ph.D. from University of California, Riverside (2007), and then became a post doc at Maple's laboratory, Unversity of California, San Diego (2008). In December 2011, she joined Department of Physics, Fudan University, and worked as an associate researcher since then.

Her research programme is focused on the growth, electrical and thermal transport, magnetic and thermodynamic properties, and muon spin relaxation and rotation research of strongly correlated materials. She has published about 70 papers on Science Advances, Nature Communications, PNAS, Physical Review Letters and other international journals. Dr. Shu is a member of review commitee of muon beam time of Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, UK, and a member of international consultant commitee of the 14th International Conference on Muon Spin Rotation, Relaxation and Resonance.
