I am Minjae Kwen, a Ph.D. student in the Quantum Science and Engineering program (QSE) of Harvard University.

Research

My main research interest is quantum information science. I currently work on the state preparation of quantum simulator. As an undergraduate, I studied catalytic reaction mechanisms and nonadiabatic dynamics (surface hopping) for photoelectrochemical devices. In graduate school, I aim to further develop my theoretical approaches.
