About

I am a research scientist in the Center for Quantum and Topological Systems (https://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/CQTS) at New York University in Abu Dhabi. My degree is in theoretical physics.

My work is about mathematical structures motivated from quantum field theory and string theory. For more see http://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/Urs+Schreiber
