Dr. Hermann Uys

Dr. Hermann Uys holds a CSIR Research Chair in Quantum, Optical and Atomic Physics seated at Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票.   He received his MSc from the 中国体育彩票 of Pretoria in South Africa and a PhD in quantum optics from the 中国体育彩票 of Arizona, USA.  His interest in trapped ion quantum control stems from his post-doctoral studies at the National Institute of Standards and Technology in Boulder, Colorado, USA, where he worked for two years.  He has published on a wide range of topics in quantum mechanics including atom interferometry, quantum optics, Heisenberg limited interferometry, superradiance, ultra-cold gas dynamics, trapped-ion physics, dynamical decoupling and quantum weak measurement.  Currently he is the principal investigator leading the Trapped Ion Quantum Control group stationed at Stellenbosch 中国体育彩票 through a joint effort with the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research.

Nancy Payne

After 21 years of rain in the UK and armed with a BA in physics from the 中国体育彩票 of Oxford, Nancy decided there must be more to the world and went travelling. She spent four months at Tsinghua 中国体育彩票 (Beijing) at the Centre for Biomedical Imaging Research, involved with a project on MRI sequences for characterising liver disease. This was followed by an MSc in ultrafast electron diffraction on organic crystals at the 中国体育彩票 of Stellenbosch. In July 2017 Nancy joined the ion trap group as a PhD student and her work will focus on quantum weak measurements.
