معرفی
Lorena Ballesteros Ferraz is a Researcher at the Department of Physics, Université de Namur. Her work focuses on quantum foundations and gender equity in STEM. She holds a Doctor of Sciences degree from 2023, supervised by Professors Caudano and Carletti. Her research explores weak measurements, modular values in quantum algorithms, and open quantum systems, with interdisciplinary contributions to science communication and gender representation in physics.
Education: Doctor of Sciences (2023), Université de Namur. Thesis: 'Fundamental study of weak values and post-selected measurements'.
Research emphasizes geometric interpretations of quantum systems, leveraging non-normal operators and modular arithmetic principles. She actively participates in international conferences such as the IQSA Conference Quantum Structures 2024 and QIP24, presenting findings on weak values and quantum information processing.
Advocacy work includes organizing events like 'Une journée d’échange sur les femmes et la science à l’UNamur' in 2023, addressing gender disparities in scientific fields. Collaborations span European institutions, with a focus on interdisciplinary teams studying quantum phenomena and educational equity.
