Amitabh Yadav

I am a y/o researcher in Computing and Physics. I grew up in India, mostly in the northern plains in Lucknow and later, in the lower Himalayas in Dehradun. After college, I moved to Geneva, Switzerland where I worked as an experimental physicist at CERN. Soon after that, I moved to Delft, Netherlands to continue my Masters. I worked on theoretical aspects of enabling a scalable implementation of Quantum Processors. After graduating I continued on a parallel track of exploring applications of Quantum Systems in High Energy Physics experiments at LBNL/UC Berkeley. Currently, I work at CERN.

I like cycling off-road, bike-packing and hiking. This comes alongside my hobbies as ranging from a nature lover to exploring ancient cities with intriguing historical backgrounds. I am a native Hindi speaker, fluent in English and a moderate-level French speaker.
