    BioSince his master’s and PhD at ETH, Nicolò D’Anna’s research has been dedicated to understanding and controlling quantum states of matter in low-dimensional solid-state systems. During his PhD he specialized in ultra-low-temperature magneto-transport to study dopant layers and structures in silicon for quantum computing. During his postdoc at UCSD, he focused on utilizing advanced coherent X-ray diffraction techniques to investigate metal-to-insulator transition switching in metal-oxides for neuromorphic applications. Currently, as an Urbanek-Chodorow postdoctoral fellow, he aims to achieve ultra-fast time-resolved optical interrogation and control of low-temperature quantum phases in synthetic stacked van-der-Waals systems, with a particular focus on magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene.
