He was a Laureate Fellow of the Australian Research Council and a University Distinguished Professor in optoelectronics and Foundation Director of the Centre of Micro-Photonics (2000-2015) at Swinburne University of Technology. He was appointed as Pro Vice-Chancellor for International Research Collaboration (2009-2010), Research Innovation (2010), and Research Capacity (2011-2015) at Swinburne. He was also the Foundation Director of the Victoria-Suntech Advanced Solar Facility from 2010-2015. From 2005 - 2010, he was a node leader of the Australian Cooperative Research Centre for Polymers. Previously, he was the Special Advisor to Swinburne’s Vice-Chancellor, Acting Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Research and Development) and Vice President, Dean of Science, Acting Dean and Deputy Dean (Research) of Engineering and a member of the University Council, Academic Board, and Board of Research.[1]

Gu is a world leading authority in the fields of nanophotonics, nanofabrication, biophotonics and multi-dimensional optical data storage with internationally renowned expertise in three-dimensional optical imaging theory. He is the sole author of two standard reference books, Principles of Three-Dimensional Imaging in Confocal Microscopes (World Scientific, 1996),[2] and Advanced Optical Imaging Theory (Springer-Verlag, 2000).[3] He is also the first author of Femtosecond Biophotonics: Core Techniques and Applications,(Cambridge University Press, 2010).[4] and Microscopic Imaging through Tissue-like Media: Monte Carlo Modelling and Applications (Springer-Verlag, 2015).[5] He has over 450 papers in internationally refereed journals including Nature, Science, Nature Photonics, Nature Communications and PNAS He is a member of the Editorial Boards of 16 top international journals. Professor Gu's research has led to significant impacts on societal challenges in solar energy, information technology and big data storage.

He served as President (2002–2004) and Vice President (2004–2012) of the International Society of Optics within Life Sciences. He was Vice President of the International Commission for Optics (ICO) (2005–2011). He was the Chair of the ICO Prize Committee and member of the ICO Galileo Galilei Award Committee and served on the Young Scientist Prize Committee in Optics of the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics. He serves on the Board of Directors of the Optical Society of America (Executive committee, the finance committee, Chair of the International Council, Chair of the Working Group on Asia).

He was awarded the Chang Jiang Chair Professorship (Ministry of Education, China, 2007), the World Class University Professorship (Ministry of Education Ministry of Education, South Korea, 2009), the Thousand Talents Award (Ministry of Education, China, 2009), Einstein Professorship (Chinese Academy of Sciences, 2010), and Laureate Fellowship (Australian Research Council, 2010).[6] He is a recipient of the W. H. Steel Prize (Australian Optical Society, 2011),[7] the Ian Wark Medal and Lecture (Australian Academy of Science, 2014)[8] and the Boas Medal (Australian Institute of Physics, 2015).[9] He was a Finalist of the Australian Innovation Competition (2013), and a winner of the People's Choice KCA Research Commercialisation Award (2015).[10]
