Hehong Fan was born in China in 1977. She received her B.E. in Physical Electronics & Optical Electronics and her B.S. in Science of Computation from Xi’an Jiaotong University, Xi’an, China, and her M.E. and Ph.D. degrees in Physical Electronics from Southeast University, Nanjing, China, in 1998, 2003, and 2011, respectively.
From 1998 to 2000, she was with the National Platform Display Center in Nanjing Electronic Devices Institute, Nanjing, China. She joined Southeast University in 2003, where since then she has been involved in research on reliability analysis of electronic devices, complex systems and networks. She is currently an associate professor in School of Electronic Science and Engineering, in Southeast University.

Her research topics include reliability evaluation of communication/sensor networks and complex systems; network failure detection, localization, and restoration; restorable optical access network architecture design; reliability analysis of vacuum electronic devices and photonic devices.
