The Niels Bohr Institute invites applicants for two PhD fellowships in Theoretical Quantum Optics and Quantum Information. The projects are part of the research center Hybrid Quantum Networks, which is financed by the Danish National Research Foundation. Start date is (expected to be) July 1, 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter.

This interdisciplinary project involves applying the quantum formalism (QF) to model experimental observations of human emotional memory performance, and the neural systems that support it, to better understand the interaction between elements. The quantum formalism provides a natural mechanism for modelling combinations of difficult-to-reconcile memory effects, such as the question order effect (where changing question order may change the respondent’s answer) and the response replicability effect (where repeated presentations of a question produce the same response across contexts). Conversely, the paradoxical temporal effects often observed in human memory performance mean it may provide a useful theatre for observing analogies of quantum phenomena we cannot access directly.

We offer a fully funded 3-year PhD Student (f/m/d) in Machine Learning for Quantum Computing and Simulation of Quantum Matter. The successful PhD candidate (f/m/d) will be part of the interdisciplinary DRESDEN-concept Research Group AI 4 Quantum which is currently established at the Center for Advanced Systems Understanding (CASUS) of the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) and the Center for Scalable Data Analytics and Artificial Intelligence Dresden/Leipzig (ScaDS.AI) at the Center for Interdiscip­linary Digital Sciences (CIDS) of the TU Dresden. In this project, you will learn to develop and apply novel deep machine learning (ML) methods, neural network and artificial intelligence approaches to extend the reach of accurate computational methods to study strongly correlated quantum matter. The focus will be the development of novel Neural Quantum States, deep learning approaches to design quantum computing (QC) algorithms, and AI and ML techniques to improve state-of-the-art quantum Monte Carlo methods.

The Quantum Photonics Lab at Heriot-Watt University seeks a talented PhD candidate to carry out a project on integrated quantum memories based on Rare Earth Crystals, within the newly funded CDT on Applied Quantum Technologies.

Primary supervisor: Prof Margherita Mazzera (m.mazzera@hw.ac.uk)

Deadline for applications: February 7th, 2025. More details on the project and on the application process here: https://www.aqt.ac.uk/programme/phd-projects/
