Jens Eisert, born October 9, 1970, is a German physicist, ERC fellow, and professor at the Free University of Berlin.
He is notable as one of the co-pioneers of quantum game theory[1] with Maciej Lewenstein and PhD advisor Martin Wilkens. He is also known for his research in quantum information science and related fields. He has worked on aspects of entanglement theory and computational models, as well as quantum optical implementations and the study of complex quantum systems.
Education
He attended high school at the Wilhelm von Humboldt Gymnasium, Ludwigshafen, Germany. He obtained his first degree in physics from the University of Freiburg and his master's degree in mathematics and physics from the University of Connecticut under a Fulbright scholarship. In 2001, he obtained his PhD from University of Potsdam under Martin Wilkens with a thesis entitled Entanglement in Quantum Information Theory.
Career
In 2001-2002, he was a Feodor Lynen Fellow at Imperial College. In 2002-2003, he was a visiting scholar at Caltech. During 2002-2005, he was a junior professor at the University of Potsdam. During the 2005-2008 period he was a lecturer at Imperial College. In 2008, he became a full professor at the University of Potsdam, in 2011 a full professor at the Free University of Berlin. In 2009-2010, he was a fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study, Berlin.
