Michael Perlin
I received my B.Sc. in physics at Oregon State University in 2015, spent a year in the Controlled Quantum Dynamics Group at Ulm University, and am currently a Ph.D. student in the Rey Theory Group at the University of Colorado at Boulder.
My research interests are primarily in quantum simulation, quantum computation, and quantum information theory in the context of AMO and condensed matter systems. I am particularly excited by the use of highly controllable cold atomic systems as a versatile playground for studying exotic quantum phenomena and developing novel quantum technologies. I currently study spin-orbit coupling and effective three-body physics of cold atoms in optical lattices.

The Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC) program supports university-based centers and institutes where the collective efforts of a larger group of individuals can enable transformational advances in the most promising research areas. The program is designed to foster major breakthroughs at the intellectual frontiers of physics by providing needed resources such as combinations of talents, skills, disciplines, and/or specialized infrastructure, not usually available to individual investigators or small groups, in an environment in which the collective efforts of the larger group can be shown to be seminal to promoting significant progress in the science and the education of students. PFCs also include creative, substantive activities aimed at enhancing education, broadening participation of traditionally underrepresented groups, and outreach to the scientific community and general public.
