Anne Lise Broadbent is a mathematician at the University of Ottawa who won the 2016 Aisenstadt Prize for her research in quantum computing, quantum cryptography, and quantum information.[1][2] As of July 2024, she holds the Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Quantum Communications and Cryptography.[3]
Early life and education
[edit]Broadbent specialised in music at De La Salle High School in Ottawa, graduating in 1997. Her interest in science led her to major in mathematics for her undergraduate degree.[4]
Broadbent was a student of Alain Tapp and Gilles Brassard at the Université de Montréal, where she completed her master's in 2004 in the topic of Quantum pseudo-telepathy games,[5] and her Ph.D. in 2008 with a dissertation on Quantum nonlocality, cryptography and complexity.[1][6][7]
Career
[edit]After postdoctoral studies at the Institute for Quantum Computing at the University of Waterloo, she moved to Ottawa in 2014.[1] She is a Full Professor at the Department of Mathematics and Statistics of the University of Ottawa.[8] From 2014 to 2024, she held the University of Ottawa University Research Chair in Quantum Information Processing.[9]
Awards
[edit]Broadbent is the winner of the 2010 John Charles Polanyi Prize in Physics of the Council of Ontario Universities.[1][10] She was awarded the Aisenstadt Prize by International Scientific Advisory Committee of the Centre de Recherches Mathématiques in 2016 for her leadership and work in quantum information and cryptography.
