- Research Fellow
I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in the Department of Computer Science and Technology at the University of Cambridge. I work closely with Prof. Tom Gur and Dr. Sergii Strelchuk in the Algorithms and Complexity theme.
I recently obtained my PhD in Applied Mathematics (Quantum Information) from the University of Waterloo, Canada. I was supervised by Prof. Joseph Emerson and was a part of the Institute for Quantum Computing. My thesis can be found here.
Research
- Quantum computing
- Classical and quantum error correction
- Quantum error characterization
In particular, my research focuses on assessing and reducing the resource requirements for quantum fault-tolerance schemes.
Themes
Teaching
I supervised Computer Science Part II Quantum Computing course in Lent 2024.
I lectured the Applied Linear Algebra I course at the University of Waterloo during Spring 2022. The course had over a hundred undergraduate students and was taught completely online.
Topics : Systems of linear equations, Matrix algebra, Determinants, Introduction to vector spaces, Applications.
I am fortunate to co-supervise Debankan Sannamoth, who is a Master's student at the University of Waterloo working with Prof. Joseph Emerson.
