Jason Pollack
Assistant Professor, Syracuse University
Jason Pollack is an assistant professor at Syracuse University. His research is aimed at understanding the emergence of the classical world from an underlying quantum state, using tools from quantum theory and quantum information to understand phenomena in cosmology, many-body physics, and quantum gravity. One of his research programs focuses on understanding the entanglement structure of quantum states; a second research program is concerned with the physics seen by observers with only limited access to, or an imperfect ability to make measurements on, the quantum state. He received his Ph.D. in Physics from Caltech.
