Research interests

My research interests include investigating early and fully fault-tolerant quantum algorithms that can be used to better exploit the power of quantum computation, as well as exploring applications in fields such as chemistry, machine learning, and optimisation, where quantum computers may potentially provide advantages over their classical counterparts.
