Lindsay J. LeBlanc is a Canadian atomic physicist. She is an associate professor of physics at University of Alberta and the Tier 2 Canada Research Chair for Quantum Simulation with Ultracold Quantum Gases.[1] Her work involves quantum simulation, quantum memory, and developing hybrid quantum systems.
LeBlanc completed a BSc in engineering physics at University of Alberta. She earned a MSc and PhD in physics at University of Toronto researching ferromagnetism in ultracold Fermi gas[2][3] winning the 2011 CAP Division of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics Canada (DAMOPC) Thesis Prize for her PhD thesis on “Exploring many-body physics with ultracold atoms”.[4] She conducted a postdoctoral fellowship at the Joint Quantum Institute of National Institute of Standards and Technology and University of Maryland, College Park.[2][5]
LeBlanc is an associate professor of physics at University of Alberta (U of A) and the Tier 2 Canada Research Chair for Quantum Simulation with Ultracold Quantum Gases.[1] She is part of the multidisciplinary QUANTA (QUantum Nanotechnology Training in Alberta) CREATE program team which trains graduate students in emerging quantum technologies.[6] She was also a fellow of Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR)'s quantum materials program.[7][8][9]
