Felix Frohnert

My name is Felix Frohnert, and I am a Ph.D. student in the Applied Quantum Algorithms group at Leiden University. My research focuses on machine learning for interacting quantum systems, with a special emphasis on representation learning.

I work on problems ranging from quantum many-body systems and quantum chemistry to quantum computing and learning under physical constraints. More broadly, I am interested in how the structure, symmetries, and emergent properties of quantum systems can be leveraged to develop machine learning models for scientific discovery.

Before starting my Ph.D., I studied physics at the University of Copenhagen and Kiel University, where I developed my interest in applying machine learning to scientific problems. Since then, I have collaborated with PsiQuantum, Airbus, Microsoft, Deutsche Bahn, and the Dutch Ministry of Finance on practical applications of machine learning and quantum computing.

Outside of research, I enjoy coffee, surfing, and cycling (especially when the Dutch weather allows it). Whether you are interested in collaborating, exchanging ideas, or simply connecting, feel free to reach out through any of the channels linked below.
