Craig Hamill is Director of Information Technology for the PME. He provides technology-based leadership in support of academic, administrative and research excellence. As the Director of IT, he is establishing and creating an IT Vision, strategy and plan that will align with and enable the PME’s mission of research, education and service. He is responsible for working and collaborating with the PME’s executive team, faculty, staff and partners to create the most efficient and effective service delivery model that encompasses both common and specialized needs.

Liang Jiang is Professor of Molecular Engineering at PME. He investigates quantum systems and explores various quantum applications, such as quantum sensing, quantum transduction, quantum communication, and quantum computation. His efforts are helping to make quantum computing and communication technology scalable and more accessible. Professor Jiang is Principal Investigator (PI) for the Jiang Group, which investigates quantum control and quantum error correction to protect quantum information from decoherence for various physical platforms.

Nancy Kawalek is Professor and Distinguished Fellow in the Arts, Science and Technology, at PME. She is an artist and innovator specializing in the creation and development of theatre inspired by science and technology. She is the founder and director of STAGE: Scientists, Technologists and Artists Generating Exploration—a laboratory for creating multimedia theater pieces in which science and technology play prominent roles in content and form. Kawalek’s team, which includes distinguished scientists, engineers, professional actors, technology experts, and diverse theatrical, visual, media and performing artists, collectively engages in the development of new theatrical work.
