Claudio Chamon is a Professor of Physics and Materials Science and Engineering at Boston University. He was awarded an NSF Early CAREER Award in 1999 and was elected a Fellow of the American Physical Society in 2008.
He received a B.S. in Aeronautics and Astronautics, an M.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, and a Ph.D. in Physics specializing in theoretical Condensed Matter Physics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).
Claudio’s research focuses on topological states of matter and their applications to topologically protected qubits for quantum information and quantum computation purposes; on equilibrium and non-equilibrium quantum many-body systems, in particular quantum glasses; and on statistical mechanics applications to quantum scramblers and classical ciphers.
