Nibedita Swain

S Nibedita Swain is a Casual Academic (part-time) in the Faculty of Science at University of Technology Sydney (UTS) while pursuing a full-time PhD funded by the Sydney Quantum Academy. She holds a visiting scholar position at the University of Queensland's Centre for Quantum Computation and Communication Technology (School of Mathematics and Physics). Her research focuses on quantum computation, quantum error correction, and photonic architectures using continuous variable systems.

Education: Current PhD candidate (funded by Sydney Quantum Academy). Academic Background: Involvement with quantum optics and quantum information theory groups.

Research emphasizes quantum communication protocols, entanglement measures in optical systems, and noise mitigation in quantum circuits. Recent work explores GKP codes, unitary averaging for quantum channels, and photon-added Schrödinger cat states.

Contributions include outreach through UTS's Mentor Science+ Program and QLD 2025 Committee initiatives promoting quantum technology awareness. She also serves as an academic tutor at the University of Queensland.
