As a researcher at the ‘Quantum Optics and Quantum Information Lab’ at the Indian Institute of Science, my work revolves around the exciting fields of quantum computation and quantum information. Within this broad area, my research focuses on simulating quantum phenomena in nature and exploring their potential applications. To achieve this, I primarily work with quantum walks, a powerful computational framework in quantum physics. Apart from these, my research has also focused on investigating the phenomenon of information scrambling and quantum chaos within complex many-body quantum systems.

I am too intelligent, too demanding, and too resourceful for anyone to be able to take charge of me entirely. No one knows me or loves me completely. I have only myself.

I am awfully greedy; I want everything from life. I want to be a woman and to be a man, to have many friends and to have loneliness, to work much and write good books, to travel and enjoy myself, to be selfish and to be unselfish… You see, it is difficult to get all which I want. And then when I do not succeed I get mad with anger.
