Fernando Pastawski

I am a theoretical physicist and computer scientist working in the field of quantum information. My main focus area is on quantum error-correcting codes. While this may sound fairly specific, it has allowed me to explore a host of different areas in physics such as quantum phases of matter, thermodynamic stability and an exciting connections to holography. One of the questions which drive me is exploring how the classical world, which we perceive in our daily lives, emerges from the quantum world, and how we can interpret that relationship and deepen our understanding of it. I currently work as a quantum architect at PsiQuantum, a  stealth mode startup focussing on general purpose quantum computing startup focusing on integrated silicon photonic qubits.
