Mondo shtuff from around the internet, all about EWIN TANG!

Ewin Tang: At the age of 18, Ewin Tang is already pursuing her PhD in theoretical computer science.

My botty best at summarizing from Wikipedia: Ewin Tang is a computer scientist at the university of washington . she was named one of 2019 Science Forbes 30 Under 30 . Tang’s research began under the supervision of Scott Aaronson when she was a teenager . Tang’s first work in quantum computing is her 2018 thesis . she completed two undergraduate degrees in computer science and in pure mathematics . Tang is an “unusually talented student” in 2016, Iordanis Kerenidis and Anupam Prakash, found an exponentially faster quantum algorithm . this algorithm uses the HHL algorithm to sample the product directly from an approximation of the preference in 2018, Tang was named a University of Texas at Austin Dean’s Honored Graduate in computer science . she pursued her research and generalized the above result, dequantizing other quantum machine learning HHL-based problems Tang was named one of Forbes 30 Under 30 for 2019 due to her work in developing computing methods that allow classical computers to handle tasks previously deemed only possible with a quantum computer.
