insideQuantum
insideQuantum tells the human stories behind cutting-edge developments in quantum technology, with the aim of highlighting the diverse range of people behind the amazing discoveries powering the quantum revolution. Each episode features a different guest, chosen from a wide variety of backgrounds, jobs and career stages, including guests from both academia and industry. Over the course of a 30-40 minute chat we'll hear all about their story, and how they got to where they are now. What got them interested in quantum physics? Where did they start, what has their journey so far been like, what advice do they have for others interested in getting into the field, and what do they think the future holds for quantum technologies?

S2E9 - Practical Quantum Computing with Dr Alex Moylett
What are the obstacles on the path towards finding practical uses for quantum computers? Take a listen to Season 2, Episode 9 of insideQuantum to find out!
This week, Dr Alex Moylett, a Senior Quantum Scientist at Riverlane, tells us all about their work in determining what current-generation quantum computers are good for, and which problems might see a computational advantage on quantum hardware.
Dr Alex Moylett obtained an MEng in Computer Science from the University of Bristol, followed by a PhD at the Quantum Engineering Centre for Doctoral Training, also at the University of Bristol. They then joined Riverlane, where they are now a Senior Quantum Scientist working on applications for near-term quantum computers.
