- The theory of Bose-Einstein Condensation
- Atom interferometry
- Bosonic Josephson junctions
- BECs in optical lattices
- Quantum technologies
- Trapped ions and their applications
- Polarons, molecules and critical phenomena in 1D Fermi gases
- Spin-orbit coupling and spintronics
- Entanglement and quantum causality
The lecture programme and lecture notes are available online.
