James Millen is a Professor of Physics at King's College London and a leading experimental quantum scientist. He serves as the Director of King's Quantum, a multidisciplinary research initiative aimed at advancing novel quantum technologies and fundamental physics at the nanoscale. He has been instrumental in establishing LeviNet, an international research network comprising 70 institutions. Millen completed his MSc in Physics at Imperial College London in 2007 and obtained his PhD in experimental atomic physics from Durham University in 2011, where he researched ultra-cold strontium Rydberg atoms. He joined University College London in 2011, working on pioneering studies in levitated optomechanics before receiving the prestigious Marie Skłodowska-Curie Research Fellowship at the University of Vienna from 2015 to 2018, where he explored mass limits in quantum physics. Millen is also dedicated to public engagement and science communication, serving as a Lecturer in Quantum Theory at the Royal Institution and actively running the Quantum Workshop, a mobile experiment outreach initiative. His research encompasses fields such as opto-electro-mechanics, nano-thermodynamics, and macroscopic quantum physics.
