My research interests lie in the intersection of quantum foundations and quantum information theory: which non-classical features could we observe in Nature, and how could we harness them to power information processing.
Roberto Dobal Baldijão
Postdoctoral researcher

Is nature really quantum or is it something else? Why does it often appear to be classical, if it is not? My primary research interest is the foundations of (quantum) physics, specially contextuality, non-classical correlations and their implications, generalized probabilistic theories and classical limits.
Marcin Karczewski
Postdoctoral researcher

I am interested in various manifestations of nonclassicality, with a keen focus on the role of indistinguishability in quantum physics.
David Schmid
Postdoctoral researcher

I am interested in formally capturing notions of classicality, and then understanding how the world forces us to give up on these notions. Ultimately, I aim to use these insights on nonclassicality to develop a more compelling realist interpretation of quantum theory which allows for meaningful causal explanations of quantum correlations.
Paulo Cavalcanti

I'm interested in the foundations of quantum theory and causality. How can we make sense of the bizarre features of Nature?
Idriss Hank Nkouatchoua Ngueya
PhD student
email: i.nkouatchouangueya.501@studms.ug.edu.pl
Fascinated by the applications of Quantum Mechanics in real-life problems, I am interested in using some aspects of its foundations to study the nonclassicality of nature through some well-designed experiments; Assessing quantum advantage in thermodynamics; Studying optimization of quantum technologies through novel ideas based upon contextuality.
Vinicius Pretti Rossi
PhD student

I'm interested in the investigation of quantum paradoxes and nonclassical behaviors, especially in how they can be tested by multiphoton setups.
Beata Zjawin
PhD student

I am still exploring the mysteries of quantum foundations! The primary focus of my current research is resource theories. I am also interested in generalizing concepts of classical causal inference to quantum mechanics.
Vicky Wright
Former member! Postdoctoral researcher
My research centres around identifying characteristic properties of quantum theory, with a view to studying their consequences for quantum technologies. To this end I work on topics such as Gleason's theorem, general probabilistic theories and contextuality.
