Cunlu Zhou

Cunlu Zhou is recruiting multiple postdoctoral researchers to join a research group at the Université de Sherbrooke , in the Department of Computer Science and Institut quantique, with connections to the Mila – Quebec Artificial Intelligence Institute. The research agenda is flexible and encourages successful candidates to develop original ideas that advance the group’s broader program in quantum computing and artificial intelligence . Core research areas include quantum algorithms and quantum error correction within the IBM Quantum Research Chair, with close collaboration with IBM Quantum. Additional projects address quantum algorithms for chemistry and scattering, quantum algorithms for finance, quantum machine learning, AI for quantum computing, hybrid continuous-variable and discrete-variable quantum computing, and quantum learning. The work involves collaborations with organizations and institutes including IBM Quantum, AMF, CDPQ, Quandela, Mila, IVADO, the Institute of Cosmos Sciences at the University of Barcelona, Nord Quantique, NC State University, and Perimeter Institute. Some projects offer co-supervision with Roman Krems of the University of British Columbia and Anne MacKay of the Université de Sherbrooke. The positions provide an opportunity to work across quantum information, machine learning, physics, computational science, and related interdisciplinary research environments.
