Naren Manjunath's Academic Page

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo, Canada (2023-present). I am currently also a PSI Teaching Fellow at Perimeter (2025-26). 

Previously, I was a PhD student at the University of Maryland, College Park (2017-2023) and was advised by Prof. Maissam Barkeshli, in the Condensed Matter Theory Center. I completed my undergraduate degree in Physics at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore (2013-2017). 

I work on the theory of topological phases of matter and their applications to quantum error correction. My CV is available here. See the research page for more details about my work.  My email is nmanjunath<at>perimeterinstitute<dot>ca .
