Richard Cleve has been based in Waterloo since 2004. He received his Ph. D. in 1989 from the University of Toronto under the supervision of Charles Rackoff, specializing in (non-quantum) cryptography and complexity theory. He became curious about quantum computing around 1994, and now works mostly in this field.
