#introduction Hello world! I am a theoretical #physicist and this will be the account of my research group. We are interested in #machinelearning for #physics, physics for machine learning (neuromorphic computing), more general artificial scientific discovery, #quantum optics, #quantumcomputing, and topics like optomechanics and topological transport. I am director at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light, Erlangen, Germany, and professor at the university in Erlangen.
