Chiara Marletto is a theoretical physicist at Wolfson College, Oxford.^[1] She is a pioneer in the field of constructor theory, counterfactuals and a generalization of the quantum theory of information.

Life

Marletto grew up in Turin.^[2] She graduated from the Polytechnic University of Torino, and the University of Oxford, where she studied with Artur Ekert.^[3]

Together with David Deutsch, she has developed constructor theory.^[4]^[5]^[6] She is a member of New Frontiers Quantum Hub.^[2]
