Prof Bob Coecke

Prof Bob Coecke

Lecturer

Prof Coecke is Distinguished Visiting Research Chair at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, Fellow at Wolfson College Oxford, and Visiting Fellow at the Computer Science Department and the Mathematical Institute of Oxford University. Previously he was Professor of Quantum Foundations, Logics and Structures at the Department of Computer Science at Oxford University, where he was 20 years. During this time, he co-founded and led a multi-disciplinary Quantum Group that grew to 50 members and has supervised 70 PhD students.  He then moved to industry, serving as Chief Scientist at Quantinuum, where he was the inventor of Quantum NLP & Compositional Intelligence. He continues to supervise students at Oxford and elsewhere, and still teaches at Oxford’s Mathematical Institute. He pioneered Categorical Quantum Mechanics (now included in AMS’s MSC2020 classification), ZX-calculus, DisCoCat natural language meaning, Quantum Natural Language Processing, and DisCoCirc natural language meaning.   For more information https://www.cs.ox.ac.uk/people/bob.coecke/

Dr Lia Yeh

Dr Lia Yeh

Lecturer 

Lia Yeh is Dowling Fellow Research Associate in the Department of Computer Science and Technology at the University of Cambridge, investigating the intersection of quantum computer architectures, quantum error correction, and quantum algorithms. She completed her PhD in Computer Science at the University of Oxford on the Clarendon Scholarship and the Google PhD Fellowship, during which she worked as a Research Scientist at Quantinuum. Her research objective is to address each layer of the quantum computing stack, from hardware systems to applications, through co-designing with quantum graphical languages, particularly the ZX-calculus. She is especially interested in constructions for fault-tolerant gate sets, quantum error correcting codes, dynamical quantum programs, and fermionic, bosonic, and higher-dimensional quantum systems. She is also active in quantum education: teaching high school students and educators, open-source software and hackathons, co-founding the Quantum Science and Engineering Education Conference, and establishing the not-for-profit Quantum Universal Education.

Dr Selma Coecke

Dr Selma Coecke

Educational Lead

Selma Coecke is a developmental cognitive scientist with a longstanding interest in multidisciplinary approaches to education. Following her first PhD in education sciences, she undertook a sabbatical at the University of Zurich in 2012, where she collaborated with physicists from CERN to investigate the implications of quantum theory for education and cognition. Subsequently, she joined the University of Oxford as an academic visitor at Quantum Group and pursued a second MSc in Educational Neuroscience at Birkbeck, University of London. She then secured ESRC funding for her second PhD in the Department of Psychology and Human Development at the Institute of Education, University College London. She also teaches the ‘Psychology and Learning’ module at master’s level at the School of Education, Communication & Society, Kings’ College, London. Dr Dündar-Coecke specializes in translating advanced and emerging scientific research into practical educational innovation, early skills and workforce development, knowledge transfer, the adoption of emerging technologies, and strategies for talent cultivation.

Dr Muhammed Hamza Waseem

Lecturer

Dr Waseem completed his DPhil in Physics at the University of Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar and subsequently worked as a Research Scientist in the quantum computing industry. He currently serves as Faculty Lead for Engineering and Computer Science at Syracuse University London. During his undergraduate studies in electrical engineering in Pakistan, he helped establish the country’s first single-photon quantum physics laboratory and co-authored Quantum Mechanics in the Single-Photon Laboratory (Institute of Physics), now in its second edition. He has taught Quantum in Pictures in both the UK and Pakistan. His contributions to physics education and public engagement have been recognised with the Public Engagement with Research Impact Award (MPLS, Oxford), the Diana Award, and a Public Engagement Award (South East Physics Network).

Dr hab John H. Selby

Dr hab John H. Selby

Lecturer

Dr Selby leads the Compositional Foundations of Physics research team at the International Centre for Theory of Quantum Technologies hosted by the University of Gdańsk, Poland. He holds degrees in Physics from the University of Gdańsk (habilitation, 2025), Imperial College London (PhD, 2017; MRes, 2014; MSci, 2012), and the University of Waterloo (MSc, 2013). His research is focused on the foundations of physics, seeking to answer questions such as: “how do we know that nature is non-classical?”, “is there any deeper theory of nature than quantum theory?” and “what is the best way to understand quantum theory?”. He doesn’t know the answers to any of these yet, but is convinced that diagrammatic methods and process based thinking will be a part of it .
