About
My name is Senrui Chen. I am a fifth-year PhD student in the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering at UChicago, advised by Liang Jiang.
My current research intersects quantum learning theory and quantum error characterization/mitigation/correction. I am interested in both fundamental theory problems and realistic experimental challenges. My ultimate goal is to push quantum information science towards practical applications.
