Vera M. Schäfer

Vera was a postdoctoral research associate working on realising a continuous-wave superradiant laser using Strontium atoms in a high finesse ring cavity. She joined the lab in 2021 coming from the University of Oxford where she was working on trapped ion quantum computing.   She is currently a Junior Research Group Leader at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics, Heidelberg where she is developing precision spectroscopy of single trapped highly-charged ions.
