Ng Hui Khoon
Hui Khoon Ng did her undergraduate in Cornell University, and then completed her PhD (2009) in the group of John Preskill at California Institute of Technology, on the subject of theoretical quantum information and computation. Upon graduation, she returned to Singapore as a postdoctoral researcher at the DSO National Laboratories of Singapore, spending part of her time at the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT) at the National University of Singapore (NUS), within the group of Berge Englert. In 2013, she joined, as a faculty member, the then new Yale-NUS College in Singapore, a joint liberal arts and sciences college set up by Yale University and NUS. She has since maintained a joint position in CQT, becoming a CQT Fellow in 2019. Her research focuses on theoretical aspects of quantum computation, particularly on noise control, quantum error correction, and fault tolerance. She currently heads up the Science Division in Yale-NUS, and is the Deputy Director (NUS) for MajuLab, a French CNRS quantum science lab situated in Singapore. She is also Senior Scientific Advisor for Entropica Labs, a quantum startup in Singapore focusing on error correction and fault-tolerant quantum computing.
