About
My name is Or Sattath (in Hebrew: אור סתת) and I’m a (2/3) postdoc in the department of Computer Science at the Hebrew University and (1/3) at the Center for Theoretical Physics at MIT. Previously, I was a postdoc in UC Berkeley under the supervision of Prof. Umesh Vazirani. I finished my PhD. under the supervision of Prof. Dorit Aharonov at the Hebrew University, and Prof. Julia Kempe at Tel-Aviv University.
News: I will be joining the Ben-Gurion CS department starting October 2017. Are you interested in doing a MSc. or PhD. in quantum computing? Send me an email.
