Dr. Thao P. Le (also known as TK) is a Research Fellow in Data Science working in the School of Mathematics and Statistics, the Melbourne Centre for Data Science (MCDS) and the Centre of Excellence for Biosecurity Risk Analysis (CEBRA) at the University of Melbourne with Dr. Chris Baker, as part of the Mathematical Ecology, Epidemiology and Biosecurity group.

They are particularly interested in: mathematical modelling of ecological and epidemiological processes to support biosecurity and public health.

They have worked on invasive species modelling, temporal Bell's inequalities, causal indefiniteness, energy transport on quantum networks, quantum batteries, and (strong) quantum Darwinism.

They used to be a quantum physicist, previously an EPSRC Doctoral Prize Fellow at the University of Nottingham and was a co-organiser of the Quantum Boundaries 2021 online workshop. Before that, they were based at UCL, MonQis (Monash University), and had been temporarily part of UCL CS Quantum.

Here's a short CV. You can contact them via email.
