Our experts are working on strategic projects to rapidly advance the next quantum revolution and actively shaping the key technologies that will define the era. If this work excites you, then join QUATRI and do your PhD research with us.
Working with our experts, you will develop the knowledge and skills to be able to lead disruptive projects. You’ll learn how to harness foundational theory and practical translation to create commercially viable devices.
Our facilities are also truly cutting edge, housing one-of-a-kind lab equipment that could unlock your ideas. With our microfabrication foundry, you can also rapidly build out prototypes to test under expert guidance.
Queensland Quantum and Advanced Technologies Research Institute Director
Associate Professor Erik Streed is an experimental quantum physicist working on quantum aspects to computing, sensing, and networking as well as application of quantum techniques into problems in biology and material science. His pioneering work integrating lighthouse-inspired segmented optics with trapped ion quantum computing enabled the first imaging of a single atom's shadow.
Associate Professor Streed’s background includes a BSc in Physics from Caltech and a PhD in Physics from MIT, where he worked with Nobel laureate Professor W. Ketterle on Bose-Einstein condensates. He has received numerous accolades, including the Queensland Young Tall Poppy Science Award in 2011, and has taught a range of physics, mathematics, and engineering courses since becoming the Gold Coast's first physicist.

Student story
Alumnus Dr Jay Gambetta is spearheading technology giant IBM’s drive to build a universal quantum computer, one which would revolutionise research and solving complex equations that classical computers are unable to.
There’s so much we still don’t know about the potential of quantum computing, it never gets boring.
