Personal profile
Biography
I grew up in India/USA. I studied engineering at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical Univerisity in Florida. Then I got my Master's and Ph.D. in physics from the University of Texas at Austin. I spent three years as a postdoc with the Centre for Quantum Technologies at the National University of Singapore and two years at Clarendon Lab, University of Oxford. I joined Monash in 2014.

Research interests
My research focuses on several related areas of quantum physics. My group uses the tools of quantum information theory to understand and characterise quantum dynamics, probing, metrology, computation, thermodynamics, and even relativity. Please visit the group website (see above) for more information.
Expertise related to UN Sustainable Development Goals
In 2015, UN member states agreed to 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure prosperity for all. This person’s work contributes towards the following SDG(s):
