Lead
Monika Schleier-Smith is an American experimental physicist studying many-body quantum physics by precisely assembling systems of ultracold atoms. Her research helps connect the world of theoretical and experimental physics.

Schleier-Smith also serves on the board of directors for the Hertz Foundation. She also works to improve education through speaking and serving on panels.

Subsequently, Schleier-Smith conducted postdoctoral research with Professor Immanuel Bloch's group at LMU Munich and Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics.

In the fall of 2013, Schleier-Smith joined the Stanford faculty as an assistant professor of physics. The Schleier-Smith Lab exploits precise hybrid light-matter interactions to demonstrate engineered dynamics in cold atom systems. According to Schleier-Smith, "Hybrid systems are likely to harbor surprises that will fuel quantum science for decades to come". An important regime under investigation is the entanglement frontier. In 2019, Schleier was recognized by science news journal by being listed as one of the top ten scientists to watch in 2019.
