Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolYuhao Dong is a PhD candidate and research assistant at UIUC with nine years of experimental physics and software experience focused on neutral-atom quantum computing and qubit engineering. He works on improving physical qubits, designing logical qubits, and developing error-corrected algorithms and verifiable quantum advantage demonstrations using ytterbium atom arrays. His background combines hands-on condensed-matter experiments on NV centers and full-stack tooling—he built and maintains a Neo4j-backed React web app hosted on AWS during his undergrad. As a teaching assistant he earned high student evaluations, and he brings practical lab discipline together with software fluency to accelerate reproducible quantum experiments. Colleagues can expect a practitioner who bridges device-level experimentation with data-driven tooling and deployment.

Apr 2022 - Jan 2023
A React app that displays textual data pulled from a Neo4j Graphical Database that documented the Tale of Genji poems. This project is part of the Boston University UROP involving myself and Professor Keith Vincent at Boston University. This project is a work in progress, and the application is hosted privately.
