Michael Vasmer

I am a researcher working in the exciting field of quantum information. In my work I focus on quantum error correction, making sure that quantum computers function correctly even when some of their components go wrong. This research is crucial in the quest to build large-scale quantum computers and also has surprising connections to various fields of mathematics, physics, and computer science.

I completed my PhD at University College London under the supervision of Dan Browne. Subsequently, I held a joint postdoctoral fellowship at the Perimeter Institute and the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC), where my mentors were Raymond Laflamme and Daniel Gottesman. Most recently, I worked as a Senior Quantum Architecture Scientist at Xanadu Quantum Technologies Inc. and as a Research Scientist at the Perimeter Institute.
