Swingle, Brian
Biography
Brian Swingle received his Ph.D. from Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2011. He studies the physics of quantum information especially in the context of quantum many-body systems and quantum gravity. Current interests include the emergence of gravity from entanglement, the efficient simulation of quantum many-body systems using entanglement-based methods, and the out-of-equilibrium dynamics of quantum information.
