+* Graduated in Physics at the Universidade de Brasília (2008);\\
+* Ph.D. in Physics at the Universidade Federal Fluminense (2014); \\

-Sou doutorando em Física da Universidade Federal Fluminense, desde 2009. Estudo principalmente resultados de simulabilidade/universalidade de circuitos quânticos restritos (p. ex. férmions ou bósons não-interagentes), na tentativa de melhor compreender o salto de poder computacional entre computadores clássicos e quânticos.
+**Research**
-**Formação**
+My main research interests are in the area of Quantum Computing, in particular in understanding which fundamental physical resources are sufficient or necessary for the construction of quantum devices capable of demonstrating some computational advantage. Specifically, I have worked in
-  * Bacharelado em Física, Universidade de Brasília, 2004-2009
+  * Quantum computing with (bosonic) linear optics and the Knill-Laflamme-Milburn protocol;
-  * Doutorado em Física, Universidade Federal Fluminense, 2009 -
+  * Restricted models of quantum computing and their complexity:
+   * BosonSampling (i.e. non-adaptive linear optics);
+   * Matchgates, a set of quantum gates closely related to //fermionic// linear optics;
+   * Other "quantum computational supremacy" proposals, such as random circuits, IQP, and so on;
+  * Quantum computing with nonlinear optics. Specifically, whether it is possible to construct a working quantum computer based on the cross-Kerr or self-Kerr effects;
-**Interesses de pesquisa**
+I am also strongly interested in other topics in the field of quantum computation, information and foundations, such as
-  * Computação quântica com ótica linear (Um artigo de revisão bastante completo, porém um pouco antigo, pode ser encontrado [[http://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/0512071|aqui]])
+  * Alternative models of quantum computing, such as measurement-based, topological and adiabatic quantum computing;
-  * Circuitos quânticos restritos, como [[http://arxiv.org/abs/1106.1863|matchgates]] ou [[http://arxiv.org/abs/1011.3245|ótica linear na ausência de medidas adaptativas]], e suas capacidades computacionais.
+  * Whether it is possible to perform other "nonclassical" tasks, such as violations of Bell inequalities, within restricted subsets of Quantum Mechanics.
