Science Operations Manager, Quantum AI Lab
Dr. Venturelli graduated from Ecole Normale Superieure de Lyon and obtained his Ph.D. in Numerical Simulations of the Condensed Matter at the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA) in Trieste and in Nanophysics at the Universite de Grenoble (CNRS/UJF). He worked as a post-doc at Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa, Italy, in the Condensed Matter and Information Theory group. Before joining QuAIL, his past publications include quantum condensed matter, many-body theory, device designs in collaboration with experimentalists, quantum thermodynamics, quantum phase transitions, and non-equilibrium spin/charge/energy transport in mesoscopic systems. His applied focus in quantum optimization is in complex scheduling, telecommunication networks, and robotics/distributed AI, also in collaborations with academia and the private sector.
