Research & academia

In my research I worked on topics related to quantum mechanics: quantum information, open systems, quantum biology and relativistic quantum information.

I worked in the research groups of:

  • prof. Krzysztof Wodkiewicz (University of Warsaw) / PhD,

  • prof. Maciej Lewenstein (ICFO, Barcelona) / PhD,

  • prof. Vlatko Vedral (CQT, NUS, Singapore) / postdoctoral research,

  • prof. Andrzej Dragan (Unversity of Warsaw) / postdoctoral research.

I also worked as a project manager to a consortium for the scientific project funded by EU: Q-Essence (coordinator: University of Warsaw, project lead: prof. Konrad Banaszek), 2010-2011 Department of Physics, University of Warsaw.
