BIOGRAPHY

TP was born and educated in Poland, obtaining his PhD in from the University of Gdańsk in 2007. He was a postdoctoral fellow at the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna and the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT) in Signapore. He worked at Nanyang Technological University, University of Gdańsk and now at Xiamen University Malaysia. His works concern quantum physics, information theory, biology and gravity as well as their interplay.
