Rahul Jain obtained his Ph.D. in computer science from
the Tata Institute of Fundamental
Research, Mumbai, India in 2003. His Ph.D. advisor
was
Jaikumar Radhakrishnan.
He was a postdoctoral fellow
for two years at the University of
California, Berkeley (2004-2006) and for two years at the
Institute for Quantum Computing
(IQC), University of Waterloo,
Canada (2006-2008). In 2008, he joined
NUS as an Assistant Professor in
the Computer Science Department with a cross appointment with
CQT. His research interests are in the areas of information
theory, quantum computation, cryptography, communication
complexity, and computational complexity theory.

Iordanis Kerenidis received his Ph.D.
in 2004 from the Computer Science
department at the University of
California, Berkeley. His advisor was
Umesh Vazirani.
After a two-year
postdoctoral position at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
he moved to France, where he now holds a Senior Researcher CNRS position,
based at the
Université Paris-Diderot.
Since 2009, he has also been a
long-term visiting scholar at the Centre for Quantum Technologies,
Singapore. His research interests lie in the intersection of quantum
cryptography and complexity theory.

Greg Kuperberg received a bachelor's degree from
Harvard University (1987)
and a Ph.D. in geometric topology and quantum algebra
from University of
California, Berkeley (1991). His advisor was
Andrew Casson.
Both of his parents are mathematicians, and every subset of the
three have authored at least one paper, including the empty
subset if one allows other coauthors. He has
compiled a computer-assisted survey of complexity classes
called
“Complexity Zoology.”
