Connor Shelly
DIRECTOR OF MATERIALS SCIENCE & DEVICE ENGINEERING
As the Director of Materials Science and Device Engineering, Connor is responsible for the manufacturing of OQC’s qubits, QPUs, and superconducting devices, as well as being responsible for areas including qubit coherence, cryogenic packaging, materials science, and nanofabrication. Prior to joining OQC, Connor worked at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) where he was the lead researcher for the Superconducting Electronics team and worked on the development of quantum limited amplifiers and carried out research into the physics of superconducting nanobridges as Josephson elements.
EVENT DETAILS
The 2025 Joint March Meeting and April Meeting — referred to as the APS Global Physics Summit — is the largest physics research conference in the world, uniting 14,000 scientific community members across all disciplines of physics.
The event provides opportunities to connect with the community and unlock career opportunities, to meet and discuss new ideas and the latest physics research and to explore cross-disciplinary sessions and collaborative events.
This joint meeting reflects the inclusivity and synergy of many physics disciplines and emerging cross-disciplinary areas of science. The 2025 event will be a special week as they celebrate the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology.
If you are attending and would like to meet with one of our team on site during the event to discuss our quantum solutions, your use case, or get an introduction to OQC, you can contact us to arrange a meeting at [email protected]
