Milad Marvian

I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of New Mexico and also a member of the Center for Quantum Information and Control (CQuIC). My research interests include theoretical aspects of quantum computation, with a focus on quantum error correction and algorithms. I am also interested in exploring the connections to quantum optimal control and open quantum systems.
Previously, I was a postdoctoral associate at MIT, and before that I completed my Ph.D. in Electrical & Computer Engineering in 2018 at the University of Southern California. I am a receipent of the NSF CAREER award. I am currently serving as an editor for Quantum journal.
