Academic Achievements
  • Published paper 'Low-cost noise reduction for Clifford circuits' in Physical Review Letters; Participated in numerous conference talks and workshops like QIP2026, QEC conference, Intriq conference, etc.; Served on program committees or as an external referee for multiple conferences.
Research Experience
  • Currently a Principal Researcher at IonQ, leading the quantum error correction team. Previous work involved designing various types of quantum error correction codes including surface codes, color codes, Floquet codes, block codes, and LDPC codes. Developed several decoding algorithms such as the Union-Find decoder, the projection decoder for color codes, and a peeling decoder capable of correcting erasures.
Background
  • Research Interests: Quantum error correction and fault tolerance; Professional Field: Quantum computing; Background: Aiming to use quantum error correction techniques to improve the quality of qubits and quantum operations, enabling the execution of large-scale quantum algorithms.
