Description

Tell us a little about yourself — your research interests, the group you work in, and how long you have been in your current position.
I am currently in my third year as a PhD student at the Walther-Meissner-Institute, where I am part of the quantum communication group. My research focuses on superconducting quantum circuits, which are essential for advancing quantum technologies like quantum computing and communication.

What motivates you to apply as a PhD representative?
I’m motivated to apply as a PhD representative to help shape the community, support fellow researchers, and ensure that PhD students’ voices are heard. The MCQST PhD Board offers a great platform to represent my fellow PhD students at MCQST, actively contribute to shaping its activities and initiatives, and contribute to a collaborative research culture.

Tell us about your current research work and what excites you most about it.
My research focuses on superconducting quantum circuits, particularly Josephson parametric circuits and their applications in quantum amplification and signal processing. Over the past few years, I have focused on the challenges of fabricating these devices with high precision, aiming to enhance their performance and reliability while pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in quantum science.
