Co-founder and Chief Scientist Dr. Chris Monroe
to depart IonQ to return to his academic, research and policy
pursuits
IonQ (NYSE: IONQ), an industry leader in quantum computing,
today announced that Dr. Chris Monroe, Chief Science Officer, will
be leaving the company. Dr. Monroe co-founded IonQ in 2015 and his
scientific contributions and leadership have played an instrumental
role in shaping IonQ’s research efforts.
As Gilhuly Family Distinguished Presidential Professor of
Physics and Electrical Computer Engineering at Duke University, Dr.
Monroe will be returning to his academic, research, and policy
pursuits. He will continue to lead research in quantum computing
technology, educate the quantum workforce, and advise quantum
institutes across the world.
“Chris has been a pioneer working on all aspects of ion trap
quantum computers, from the demonstration of the first quantum
logic gate in 1995 to the invention of the first scalable quantum
computer architecture,” said Peter Chapman, President and Chief
Executive Officer of IonQ. “Under his support and leadership, IonQ
was granted exclusive ion trap intellectual property licenses from
the University of Maryland and Duke University – two distinguished
research universities pushing the frontiers of quantum computing.
Chris has also helped guide the company to build scalable quantum
computers that will drive commercial advantage. We are grateful to
Chris for his many contributions and wish him the best.”
“It has been a privilege to work alongside so many exceptionally
talented engineers and scientists,” said Dr. Monroe. “We have
brought forward several first-in-class quantum technologies,
culminating in a clear roadmap that is poised to drive commercial
advantage in the future. I'm proud of what we've accomplished so
far and want to thank everyone at IonQ."
