Third time that big bro’s work is reported on Quantum Zeitgeist for just this year! Wishing for more hat-tricks to come his way… πŸ‘€

Easy to feel powerless in times like these.

Trying to remember that science is a political act and a force that brings people together from all over the world out of excitement for the beauty of nature.

In this sense, science is an act of defiance against those that wish to divide humanity.

Molecular Motion Enhances Magnetic Sensitivity In Radical Pair Systems. Cryptochrome proteins, utilising magnetosensitive spin-correlated radical-pairs, demonstrate enhanced magnetic field sensitivity and precision approaching theoretical limits through structured molecular motion modulating interradical interactions, suggesting a pathway towards improved molecular-based metrology and information technologies.

Am overjoyed to share that my team was awarded 1st prize for this year's UK National Quantum Computing Centre Hackathon!

Earlier last month, I also contributed a flash talk for the Foundations of Quantum Computing (FQC) 2025 workshop, results now being written up into a preprint.

Watch this space!

Finally back home in Chittagong after so long, spending the holidays with my parents, and my cats. Also posting some photos from the "SchrΓΆdinger Cats" workshop at OIST, undoubtedly a highlight of my yearβ€”stunning venue, amazing talks and posters, insightful discussions, and great new friends!

Just left China, staying there for a day-long stopover on the way to Okinawa. Had a really lovely time, and looking forward to doing a longer actual visit (quantum adjacent or otherwise!) in the future!

Fun day-long stopover in Shanghai on the way to OIST, Okinawa for SchrΓΆdinger Cats workshop.

My talk on higher order weak values, reporting on work with @jbgoette.bsky.social, concludes the first session in the program.

Look forward to belated trip back home to Bangladesh once workshop concludes!

Last conference before starting my PhD, showcasing results from last year's CASSUM Fellowship, at JETS, organised by DIAS in beautiful Westport, County Mayo. Was wonderful catching up with my supervisor, Dr. Brandt Gaches, in person after over a year.

I look forward to the journey ahead ❇️

Concluding my July travels with the NQCC hackathon at Warwick, sharing a picture of our team β€œFellowship of the Frustrated RinQ”. Many thanks for Rolls Royce for providing us with an interesting use case, and IBM Quantum for access to 127 qubit devices.

A special highlight of Emergence Of Classicality for me was Dr. Nicole Yunger Halpern’s amazing talk, also got my copy of her book signed!

Hello world! I am Shushmi, an incoming PhD student at CNQO Strathclyde, interested in all things Quantum.

I look forward to discussing my work and engaging with quantum preprints shared here, speaking of which, here is my first one: scirate.com/arxiv/2407.0...
