I currently work for Booz Allen Hamilton as a science advisor to DARPA.
As a NSF Distinguished Research Fellow I worked in the Theory of Condensed Matter (TCM) division at the Cavendish Laboratory of the University of Cambridge, United Kingdom. I also did research at the Centre for Quantum Computer Technology, School of Physics at the University of Melbourne, Australia and at the Department of Applied Physics at the University of Tokyo, Japan. Before that, I was in the Department of Physics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA in the silicon solid-state quantum computing group.
This site serves as a repository for prior academic work and in no way represents the views or opinions of anyone but myself. Following tradition, most of this site is very out-of-date. |

• Linked-In profile.
• Personal history and information.
• Curriculum Vitae in long academic format (outdated).
I never quite finished a page on my postdoc experiences traveling around the world. (Updated with Japan pictures!) |

Thinking and Stuff, Related |
I am interested in the societal implications of advanced technologies, including nanotechnology and quantum information technology.
I recently taught a course on Nanotechnology and Society (Spring 2005) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison which was co-developed with R. Leung (Sociology), C. Miller (Public Affairs), W. Crone (Eng. Phys.), K. Ellison (Hist. Tech.), and G. Zenner (MRSEC).
