Dimitris G. Angelakis

Dimitris G. Angelakis completed his PhD in quantum optics with Sir Peter Knight FRS at Imperial College London supported by the Greek State Scholarship Foundation. His PhD work in quantum light-matter interactions received the Valerie Myerscough prize in 2000, and also the Institute of Physics UK prize in 2002. In 2001 and at age 25 he was elected college research Fellow at University of Cambridge (St Catharine’s JRF) and worked in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics until 2007. A year after his move to Cambridge, the Centre for Quantum Computation in Cambridge was initiated by Artur Ekert, where he joined to work in implementations of quantum simulation and computation. He joined CQT at its inception in 2008 as a Principal Investigator after being a regular visitor and collaborator of the NUS quantum group since 2003. He is known among others for his pioneering work in quantum simulators using light-matter systems as well as qubit efficient quantum algorithms for industrial application with NISQ processors. He received the Google Quantum Innovation Prize in 2018.
