Dr Dr Regina Finsterhoelzl

Regina Finsterhoelzl is a physicist and software developer specializing in quantum computing, with expertise in quantum algorithms, error correction, and software for machine learning. As a Senior R&D Scientist at Quantinuum, she designs and implements error-correted and fault-tolerant algorithms for quantum chemistry. Her academic research at the University of Konstanz and TU Berlin advanced protocols for quantum information processing, error correction, the simulation of noisy quantum devices, and the control of systems of coupled qubits as open quantum systems. Beyond research, she has advised governmental institutions on quantum software, led a study on this topic, and developed data analysis and text mining tools. She also holds a Ph.D. in humanities, with published work on decolonization after the Second World War.
