Categories
Danielle Braje is an assistant leader of the Quantum Information and Integrated Nanosystems Group at MIT’s Lincoln Laboratory. With a focus on quantum sensing, her group applies the fundamental stability of quantum systems to the sensing arena. Current development focuses on small, portable, solid-state systems like nitrogen vacancies in the diamond lattice. Her research interests span from atomic physics and low-light-level nonlinear optics to atom interferometry and quantum coherence. Braje has received a Hertz Fellowship, Urbanek Fellowship and NSF Fellowship. She has served on NSF and NASA panels, and is a member of the American Physical Society. She earned a BS in physics from the University of Arizona, and a PhD in applied physics from Stanford University.
