Quantum Computing

Recent Research Publications

My quantum computing research has resulted in several high-impact publications demonstrating practical advances in near-term quantum systems. Key achievements include the largest demonstration of a GHZ state with genuine multipartite entanglement (75 qubits), a novel long-range teleportation-based CNOT gate achieving >85% fidelity across 40 lattice sites, and the first demonstrations where gate-model quantum computers outperform quantum annealers for optimization problems.

AI and Public Policy

Conducted research on adversarial machine learning vulnerabilities and defense policy NLP analysis, while contributing to AI safety through red-teaming efforts with OpenAI and Meta and founding RAND’s influential AI research community.

Network Science Approaches for Public Policy

Developed deep learning methods for synthetic network generation and applied network science to optimize vaccination strategies during pandemics.

Nuclear Weapons Effects Modeling

Development of new numerical code for the Karzas-Latter-Seiler model of high-altitude electromagnetic pulse (EMP) effects.
