Voces, CSIC Balears: Quantum Reservoir Computing, quantum networks and outreach
IFISC (UIB-CSIC) and the Institutional
Representation of CSIC in the Balearic Islands join forces and create
"Voces, CSIC Balears", a bimonthly podcast for the dissemination of
science. Through interviews with scientists working at CSIC's centres in the Balearic
Islands, it aims to increase the visibility of the science carried out in the
region. The 26th episode of "Voices, CSIC Balears" features Roberta
Zambrini.
Roberta
Zambrini graduated from the Università degli Studi di Milano (1999) and holds a
PhD from the UIB with the thesis "Quantum fluctuations in nonlinear
optical patterns". She then did a postdoc at the University of Strathclyde
(Glasgow, UK), where she studied the mechanical properties of light. She then
obtained a Ramón y Cajal contract and joined IFISC (UIB-CSIC). Since 2008
Roberta is a CSIC Senior Scientist at IFISC, where she has led research on
Complex and Open Quantum Systems, synchronization, quantum networks, quantum
optics and more recently Quantum Machine Learning. In 2019-20 she coordinated
the CSIC's White Paper on Digital and Complex Information.Quantum Reservoir Computing, redes cuánticas y divulgación | VOCES, CSIC BALEARS #26

IFISC collaborator Dr. Jan Danckaert is elected rector of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel
On June 21, Professor Jan Danckaert was elected as the new
rector of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel. He is expected to
take up his new duties next September.Jan Danckaert graduated in physics at the University of
Antwerp and received his PhD in the field of nonlinear
optics.His relationship with IFISC started with a postdoctoral stay
at the Department of Cross-Disciplinary Physics of the
Mediterranean Institute for Advanced Studies (now IFISC) in
the periods February-August 2001 and 2002, in the framework
of the FWO-Flanders postdoctoral mobility program and the
European RTN VISTA network. Since then, he has made several
shorter stays at our institute.
Prof. Danckaert has coauthored 22 papers with IFISC researchers, many of them on nonlinear
photonics. He has also co-directed with them 6 PhD theses
and participated in three common research projects.
