Ian Walmsley in conversation with Roger Kneebone
Sunday, 9 November, 2025
Professor Ian Walmsley is Provost of Imperial College London and Chair in Experimental Physics. He has a distinguished career as a researcher, both in the UK and overseas. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society and has many awards and honours, including a CBE. Ian has a specialist interest in quantum information processing and leads a research group in this field. He is about to step down from his role at Imperial and take on the leadership of the Oxford Quantum Institute. In this podcast we explore what quantum computing is and how non-specialists like me might think of it. https://www.imperial.ac.uk/about/leadership-and-strategy/provost/about-the-provost/
