Dr. Stephanie Simmons
Assistant Professor of Physics and Canada Research Chair in Quantum Nanoelectronics, Simon Fraser University
Dr. Stephanie Simmons is an Assistant Professor of Physics and Canada Research Chair in Quantum Nanoelectronics at Simon Fraser University, Canada. She received a B.Math from Waterloo (2008), a D.Phil. in Materials Science from Oxford (2011) and was based in UNSW’s Electrical Engineering department for her postdoc before joining Simon Fraser University in the fall of 2015. She has worked on silicon-based spin qubits with the particular aim to develop CMOS-compatible scalable quantum technology solutions. Her work on silicon-based qubits was awarded a Physics World Top Ten Breakthrough of the Year of 2013 and again in 2015. She has published in the Nature, Science, and the Physical Review families of journals, and her work has been covered by the New York Times, CBC, BBC, Scientific American, the New Scientist, and others.
