UGA Physics Alumna Emily Pritchett, PhD on the New APS Division of Quantum Information
Currently with The IBM T. J. Watson Research Center in New York, Emily is the Secretary and Treasurer for the APS DQI
Emily Pritchett Emily Pritchett obtained her PhD in physics from the University of Georgia in 2010. Her dissertation "Quantum Computation: Devices, Gate Design, and Quantum Simulation" focused on design and use of early quantum computers based on superconducting electrical circuits. Her supervisor, Michael Geller, says that her work on quantum simulation with noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices was many years ahead of its time. After graduation, Emily was a postdoc at the Institute for Quantum Computing, University of Waterloo, Canada. She also worked at Hughes Research Lab in Malibu before joining the IBM T. J. Watson Research Center in New York.
