Research at a glance

Quantum algorithms, hybrid learning, and data-driven biotechnology—from computational methods to experimental applications.

Research themes

  • Quantum optimization

    Designing QAOA variants that balance expressive power, parameter training, and circuit depth. I study how symmetries and perturbations affect combinatorial problems on graphs (e.g. MaxCut) solved by quantum algorithms, and apply quantum optimization to concrete use-cases, especially time-series anomaly detection and dynamical systems.

  • Quantum algorithms & cryptanalysis

    Studying Grover search and quantum walks within a common circuit framework for cryptanalysis. I examine how noise, circuit resources, and interactions with an environment change success probabilities and time-space trade-offs on near-term quantum devices.

  • Quantum workflow orchestration

    Making quantum-enhanced tasks usable on computing clusters through modular workflows and accessible interfaces. At CERN, I developed an orchestration framework using Streamlit, Kubernetes, and Argo Workflows for tasks such as circuit cutting and sample-based diagonalization.

  • Machine learning for biotechnology

    Using experimental data and predictive models to guide microfluidic liposome formulation for nanomedicine, connecting formulation and flow conditions with particle size and polydispersity, supported by independent wet-lab validation, curated datasets, and an open-source design toolkits.

  • Emerging direction

    Quantum computing for drug discovery

    Exploring how quantum computing could contribute to drug-discovery problems, including molecular modelling and drug discovery. This direction brings my interests in quantum algorithms and biotechnology into a shared research programme.

  • Emerging direction

    Quantum metrology

    Exploring quantum approaches to parameter estimation and precision measurement. Related foundations include my work on perturbative descriptions of quantum systems and an early experimental study of Planck's constant using LEDs.
