Maksim is a doctoral graduate in Physics from Princeton University, where he completed his dissertation on exploring non-trivial states of matter in topological quantum materials using scanning tunneling microscopy. His current research interests include investigating sources of noise and decoherence in superconducting qubits and utilizing quantum material platforms for next-generation algorithms and computations. In his spare time, Maksim enjoys playing soccer and chess. He is looking forward to having a great time and experience at Syracuse University.
