Miguel Angel Lopez-Ruiz works on quantum computing, developing and testing algorithms that run on real quantum hardware (such as trapped-ion machines) for practical problems like portfolio optimization, protein folding, scheduling, and linear algebra. Earlier work focused on theoretical particle physics, particularly quantum chromodynamics and how quarks are confined inside particles. Recent research bridges physics and applied quantum computing, including simulations of nuclear processes like neutrinoless double-beta decay.
