Vlatko Vedral - Curriculum Vitae#
EDUCATION HISTORY
- PhD in physics at Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine (Title: “Quantum Information Theory of Entanglement”, supervised by Prof. Sir Peter L. Knight, FRS), October 1995 - March 1998. Most of my thesis work is presented in my review article (V. Vedral, “The Role of Relative Entropy in Quantum Information Theory”, Rev. Mod. Phys. 74, 197 (2002))
- BSc in physics (first class) at Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine (Specialised in Theoretical Physics), October 1992 – June 1995
SUPERVISION AND LEADERSHIP
- 40 students have received PhDs under my supervision. I have supervised numerous undergraduate research projects in UK (14 in last 5 years at Oxford), US and Singapore (including students from the SURF Caltech exchange program as well as the Stanford University)
- Leadership roles: organisations of Major International meetings (Foundations of Physics, Leeds 2007, Theoretical Quantum Computation 2009, Singapore, Quantum biology workshop 2009, Quantum Discord international meeting 2011), committee, editorial boards (Annalen der Physik, JPhysA). I have also directed many international collaborations (recently leading a group of 15 Oxford based academics at the James Martin School in Oxford on “Bio-inspired quantum technologies”)
PUBLICATIONS AND TALKS
- Vladko Vedral has published over 300 papers including 44 Phys. Rev. Letters, 13 Nature papers, invited “News and Views”, “Essays” and “Insights” and “Opinions” for Nature, and six invited reviews on quantum information, including 4 Reviews of Modern Physics. Total citation number over 25000 (h-index = 62).
- Vladko Vedral has delivered about 300 invited lectures (plenary talks at various conferences, annual meetings of physical societies, tutorial and technical lectures at the leading universities and research centres in Europe, North America and Asia); I have been invited to give many public lectures (e.g. at the international Café Scientifique, 2007 and New Scientist 2016).
