About

Hey, I'm Kano!
I'm a PhD student in Quantum Cryptography at the University of Edinburgh and member of the Quantum Software Lab.
I am fortunate to have been awarded full funding for my PhD studies by the School of Informatics.

I obtained my master's degree in IT Security from the Ruhr University Bochum, with a special focus on Cryptography and Quantum Information.
Prior to this, I studied Mathematics at the University of Bonn, specializing in Algebraic Number Theory.
I was awarded full funding for my bachelor’s and master’s studies by the German Academic Scholarship Foundation.

During my school years, I enjoyed many mathematical competitions. Some of my work from that time is
published on this website under ‘Competitions’. Have fun reading some proofs :D
