Antoine Browaeys studied at the University of Paris Sud in Orsay, France, and obtained his Ph.D. in 2000 from the Institut d’Optique in Palaiseau, France. He spent two years at NIST in the Laser Cooling group and was hired as a scientist at the French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) in 2003. He is now leading an experimental group that explores many-body physics using arrays of individual cold atoms and small and dense cold atomic clouds.
