University Of Strathclyde: Physics Researcher Awarded Quantum Technology Fellowship

Study in UK: Dr Pablo Poggi, a Strathclyde physics research fellow, has been awarded IKRI's Quantum Technology Career Acceleration Fellowship.

Study abroad: A University of Strathclyde physics research fellow named Dr Pablo Poggi has been awarded the UKRI Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) Quantum Technology Career Acceleration Fellowship.

While commenting on this, Dr Poggi said, “I am honoured to have been selected as an EPSRC Quantum Fellow. This Fellowship is a game-changer for my career, as it will allow me to pursue a long-term research plan that combines exploring fundamental questions about quantum mechanics together with developing practical methods to bring quantum technologies closer to reality. I am eager to kick off my fellowship and start building my research team, which will be embedded into the exciting quantum research already carried out in the Department of Physics at Strathclyde, as well as engaging with my industry and academic partners both in the UK and abroad."

Under this fellowship, Dr Pablo Poggi will research how to control the effects of chaos in quantum computers and will create new methods that leverage chaotic properties in error mitigation, quantum sensing, and validating the correct operation of a quantum computer.

EPSRC Executive Chair Professor Charlotte Deane said, "These awards highlight the diversity of our quantum technologies portfolio and amplify the importance of technological integration to deliver world-leading capabilities for the UK. The Quantum Technologies sector is rapidly growing and evolving, so building a diverse and thriving workforce that can drive this forward is vital to unlocking economic and societal benefits in the future. By investing in the most promising researchers, not only are we boosting quantum skills, but we are also strengthening the research base and ensuring the UK can realise the incredible potential of new quantum technologies.”

Strathclyde Shortlisted In WhatUni Student Choice Awards' Four Categories

Whatuni Student Choice Awards (WUSCA) are decided by students based on thousands of reviews. The University of Strathclyde has been nominated in its four categories including the University of the Year.

Professor Sir Jim McDonald, Vice-Chancellor and Principal of Strathclyde said, "The quality of our students’ experience, not only educationally but also in their everyday and social lives, is central to what we offer as a university. Their positive reviews are an endorsement of the education, services and support we deliver, with the aim of helping them to be fulfilled as students and in order to prepare them for successful, productive futures.”
