Benoît Marie Joseph DeveaudBenoît Deveaud est maintenant Directeur Adjoint à l'Enseignement et la Recherche, Ecole Polytechnique Palaiseau.
Benoît Deveaud est né en France en 1952. Il est admis en 1971 à l'Ecole Polytechnique de Paris et s'y spécialise en physique. En 1974, il entre au Centre National d'Etudes des Télécommunications. Il mène à la fois les études sur les centres profonds dans les semi-conducteurs III-V, et poursuit ses études de physique en préparant un diplôme d'études approfondies en physique des solides. En 1984, il soutient sa thèse de doctorat à l'Université de Grenoble.
Entre-temps, son équipe s'intéresse aux microstructures et lance une recherche sur les propriétés structurales et optiques des super réseaux à base d'arséniure de gallium. Ces études mettent en évidence par exemple le transport vertical dans les superréseaux ou la quantification des énergies de transition dans un puits quantique. En 1986 il rejoint l'équipe de Daniel Chemla aux Bell Laboratories (Holmdel USA) et participe à la mise au point de la première expérience de luminescence ayant une résolution temporelle meilleure qu'une picoseconde. Il étudie les processus de relaxation ultra-rapide dans les puits quantiques.
Rentré en France, au CNET, en 1988, il dirige un laboratoire d'études ultra-rapides, portant sur les propriétés optiques et électroniques des matériaux semi-conducteurs.
Nommé professeur en physique à l'EPFL en octobre 1993, son équipe de recherche étudie la physique des processus ultrarapides dans les micro- et nanostructures et les composants qui les utilisent.
Il a dirigé l'Institut de Micro et Optoélectronique depuis 1998 puis l'Institut de Photonique et électronique quantique de 2003 à 2007. Son équipe participe activement au Pôle national de Recherche "Quantum Photonics" dont il a été le Directeur Adjoint de 2001 à 2005 puis le Directeur de 2005 à 2013.
Il a été Doyen pour la recherche à l'EPFL de 2008 à 2014.
De 2014 à 2017, il a dirigé l'Institut de Physique.
Il a été editeur divisionnaire de Physical Review Letters de 2001 à 2007.

Giuseppe CarleoGiuseppe Carleo is a computational quantum physicist, whose main focus is the development of advanced numerical algorithms tostudy challenging problems involving strongly interacting quantum systems.He is best known for the introduction of machine learning techniques to study both equilibrium and dynamical properties,based on a neural-network representations of quantum states, as well for the time-dependent variational Monte Carlo method.He earned a Ph.D. in Condensed Matter Theory from the International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA) in Italy in 2011.He held postdoctoral positions at the Institut d’Optique in France and ETH Zurich in Switzerland, where he alsoserved as a lecturer in computational quantum physics.In 2018, he joined the Flatiron Institute in New York City in 2018 at the Center for Computational Quantum Physics (CCQ), working as a Research Scientist and project leader, and also leading the development of the open-source project NetKet.Since September 2020 he is an assistant professor at EPFL, in Switzerland, leading the Computational Quantum Science Laboratory (CQSL).
Nicolas MacrisNicolas Macris received the PhD degree in theoretical physics from EPFL and then pursued his scientific activity at the mathematics department of Rutgers University (NJ, USA). He then joined the Faculty of Basic Science of EPFL, working in the field of quantum statistical mechanics and mathematical aspects of the quantum Hall effect. Since 2005 he is with the Communication Theories Laboratory and Information Processing group of the School of Communication and Computer Science and currently works at the interface of statistical mechanics, information theory and error correcting codes, inference and learning theory. He held long-term visiting appointments and collaborations with the University College and the Institute of Advanced studies in Dublin, the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon, the Centre de Physique Theorique Luminy Marseille, Paris XI Orsay, the ETH Zürich and more recently Los Alamos National Lab. CV and publication list.
Shingo KonoShingo Kono is a postdoctoral scholar at EPFL in the group of Tobias Kippenberg at the Laboratory of Photonics and Quantum Measurements from 2021. He currently holds a Marie-Curie Individual Fellowship, working on the hybrid quantum system of electromechanical devices and superconducting quantum circuits, as well as the optical readout of superconducting qubits. He obtained his PhD at the University of Tokyo under the supervision of Yasunobu Nakamura in 2019. His PhD research was focused on quantum measurement of itinerant microwave photons using superconducting quantum circuits. Then, he joined the Superconducting Quantum Electronics group led by Yasunobu Nakamura at RIKEN, working on the application of waveguide quantum electrodynamics in superconducting circuits until 2020.
