Academic Achievements
  • Has published 28 papers in academic journals. Serves as an editor at Quantum, a non-profit, open access journal for high-quality research across quantum science.
Research Experience
  • Postdoctoral position at Nanyang Technological University Singapore from 2016-2018, where he secured the prestigious Lee Kuan Yew Research Fellowship. Held the Imperial College Borland Fellowship in Mathematics from 2018-2020. Since October 2022, has been based at the University of Manchester as a Dame Kathleen Ollerenshaw Fellow in the Departments of Physics & Astronomy and Mathematics. Currently acting co-Director of the University's Centre for Quantum Science and Engineering, and Theme Lead for Information, Computation, and Physical Foundations.
Education
  • Awarded undergraduate (2009-2013) and doctoral (2013-2016) degrees from the University of Oxford.
Background
  • Research interests: Complexity in quantum systems and its applications. Specializes in theoretical physics, particularly in the areas of quantum simulation and complex systems. Summary: My research focuses on two core questions: What makes a quantum system appear 'complex'? and What can we do with this complexity? I aim to make these informal statements precise.
Miscellany
  • Leads a team consisting of himself and four PhD students, part of the broader Manchester Quantum Systems (ManQS) theoretical physics group.
