Instructor Profile
Liang Jiang, PhD
Professor of Molecular Engineering, University of Chicago
Liang Jiang is a Professor of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago. He theoretically investigates quantum systems and explores various quantum applications, such as quantum sensing, quantum transduction, quantum communication, and quantum computation.
Professor Jiang’s research focuses on using quantum control and error correction to protect quantum information from decoherence to realize robust quantum information processing and he has worked on: modular quantum computation, global-scale quantum networks, room-temperature nano-magnetometer, sub-wavelength imaging, microwave-optical quantum transduction, and error-correction-assisted quantum sensing and simulation. Professor Jiang received his BS in physics from Caltech and his PhD in physics from Harvard. Prior to joining PME, he served as Associate Professor of Applied Physics and Physics at Yale University.
