Starting Faculty Position @ Inria Paris (COSMIQ team)
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. After that I worked as a Senior Quantum Architecture Scientist at Xanadu and as a Research Scientist at the Perimeter Institute.
