"When Galileo invented the telescope, people didn't want to look through it...people [still] refuse to look at certain theories."
Professor Ivette Fuentes is a leading quantum physicist reshaping how we think about gravity, time, and quantum information. At the frontier of theoretical physics, Fuentes is best known for her groundbreaking work on quantum technologies designed to probe the nature of spacetime itself—where quantum mechanics and general relativity intersect.
Fuentes' work has been featured in New Scientist and brought to wider audiences through her participation in the BBC series Magic Numbers with Hannah Fry. She is also a close collaborator of Roger Penrose.
"I lost count of how many pioneering ideas [Ivette has given] with actual practical consequences in the near term" — Curt Jaimungal
