I am a Senior Scientist with more than 20 years of experience in research. My research interests are Quantum Phases of Matter: Strongly Correlated Electron Systems, High Temperature Superconductivity, Topological Phases, Dirac Matter and recently I have become more attracted to Cognitive Systems and the interrelation between condensed matter, artificial intelligence and natural intelligence.
