My Journey
Hello! I'm David, a quantum physicist at Alice & Bob, Paris.
I am working on the theoretical modeling and simulation of superconducting circuits to pave the way of building the first fault-tolerant quantum computer.
I studied in Göttingen, Germany, a city known for its rich history in physics, which undoubtedly fueled my interest in the subject from a young age. There, I had the opportunity to delve deep into the world of theoretical physics and analytical philosophy.
Then, I continued as a doctoral student in theoretical physics at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (EPFL) in Switzerland.
Now, I am particularly interested in quantum error correction and the simulation of open quantum systems. Through my research, I want to push the boundaries of our current understanding and contribute to the development of efficient quantum computing systems. My motivation stems from the immense potential of quantum computing and its ability to solve complex problems that are currently beyond our reach.
When I'm not immersed in research, I enjoy hiking in the beautiful Swiss Alps, running, cycling, and reading about science and philosophy. These activities help me find balance and provide a different perspective that often aids my research.
In the future, I aspire to continue contributing to the field of theoretical physics, through research, teaching, and science communication. I am passionate about inspiring the next generation of physicists and am looking forward to the journey ahead.
