Luis Serrano to speak in Invitations to Industry Monday

Our own Luis Serrano (UM Math PhD 2010) will be speaking Monday November 15 at Noon in the Invitations to Industry seminar, jointly sponsored by the Erdos Institute.

Don’t miss Luis! He’s an incredibly helpful resource for our PhD students and post-docs interested in *research* positions in industry. He himself is a quantum machine learning researcher at Zapata Computing, after stints as a educator in industry (for both Udacity, then Apple) and a researcher (You Tube, Google). His current company is now hiring (and hiring interns) for their Boston and Toronto locations, though they also have remote options.
