Welcome to the Semeghini Lab!
The Semeghini Lab is an experimental research group in the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences at Harvard University. We investigate highly-entangled phases of matter, trying to find answers to interesting open problems in condensed matter, high-energy physics and chemistry, and we aim to develop efficient protocols for quantum information processing. To reach these goals, we use a quantum platform based on programmable atom arrays with a mixture of alkali and alkaline-earth atoms.
We are part of the Harvard Quantum Initiative (HQI) and of the vibrant CUA community across Harvard and MIT.

We are just starting our group, so we have open positions at all levels. Click here to learn more and join our adventure!
News and events
We moved to the Goel building, new home of the HQI
In April 2024, once the renovations of the Goel building were concluded, we moved into our new lab (Goel M01). Giulia’s office is now in Goel 314 (easy to remember, it’s pi!) and our group offices are in 312 and 317.
The Semeghini Lab is born!
Giulia will start her new position as Assistant Professor of Applied Physics on January 1st, 2023!
Her first temporary lab space will be located in the Jefferson building in room J156. The lab will move to the newly renovated HQI building at 60 Oxford St in Spring 2024.
Her office is in Pierce 204B.
