Early life and education edit

Diamanti is from Greece. She was an undergraduate student at the National Technical University of Athens, where she majored in electrical and computer engineering.[1] She moved to the United States for graduate studies, joining Stanford University as a Master's student. She remained at Stanford for her doctoral research, where she looked at the implementation of phase shift quantum key distribution systems.[2] After graduating, Diamanti returned to Europe, where she joined Institut d'Optique as a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions Fellow.[3] She completed her habilitation at the Paris Diderot University in 2014.

Research and career edit

Diamanti was appointed to the faculty at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) in 2009. Her research considers experimental quantum cryptography and the development of photonics sources for quantum networks.[4][5] Alongside developing encryption software using quantum technology, Diamanti was made Vice Director of the Paris Center for Quantum Computing. In this capacity she takes part in the European Union Quantum Flagship.[6] She was awarded a Prime d'Excellence Scientifique from the CNRS in 2013. In 2018 Diamanti was awarded a European Research Council Starting Grant.[7]
