Christina Psaroudaki

Christina Psaraoudaki has held the Chair in Quantum Information at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris since 2023. She previously held research positions at Caltech, the University of Cologne, and the University of Basel, and earned her Ph.D. in 2015 from the University of Crete. Her research focuses on theoretical quantum magnetism, spanning mesoscopic physics and strongly correlated systems, using a broad range of analytical and advanced numerical methods. Recently, she introduced a new class of primitive building blocks for quantum logic, based on nanoscale magnetization textures known as skyrmions. She leads a research group developing this concept further, proposing realistic experimental techniques to extract quantum signals from mesoscopic skyrmions and to understand the impact of disorder in real materials. Christina is actively involved with IEEE activities and is committed to promoting gender balance in STEM fields.
