Season 1 Episode 4

Dr. Zohreh Davoudi is an assistant professor at University of Maryland. She is the "Quantum Simulation" Instructor for the INT Summer School on Problem Solving in Lattice QCD.  

"I am a theoretical physicist originally from Iran. In my free time, I enjoy reading political/social/cultural/medical commentaries. I also love fashion, design, and architecture. My research involves applying a range of theoretical and computational tools, from effective field theories and lattice QCD to classical and quantum computing to study the core of matter from the underlying Standard Model. I love my research since my theoretical-minded view of fundamental physics got expanded and deepened once I started figuring out how to "compute" nature from first principles — classically and quantum-mechanically! A year into the pandemic, I calculated that I gained 28 working days (= 8 hrs each) and reduced my carbon footprint by more than 3000 lbs by not having to commute to work!"  

My Journey as a Physicist is brought to you by PhD student Bryan Stanley (he/him/his) and Prof. Huey-Wen Lin (she/her).

Season 1 features interviews with the 2021 INT Summer School on Problem Solving in Lattice QCD.
