Scott Aaronson
Scott Joel Aaronson (born May 21, 1981)〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Aaronson, Scott )〕 is a theoretical computer scientist and faculty member in the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science department at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
==Early life and education==
Aaronson grew up in the United States, though he spent a year in Asia when his father—a science writer turned public-relations executive—was posted to Hong Kong. He enrolled in a school there that permitted him to skip ahead several years in math, but upon returning to the US, he found his education too restrictive, getting bad grades and having run-ins with teachers. A change for the better came thanks to a program for gifted youngsters run by Clarkson University, which enabled the young Aaronson to accelerate his learning and apply for colleges while only in his freshman year of high school.〔 He was accepted into Cornell University, where he obtained his BSc in computer science in 2000,〔(CV ) from Aaronson's web site.〕 then attended the University of California, Berkeley, for his PhD, which he got in 2004 under the supervision of Umesh Vazirani.
Aaronson had shown exceptional ability in mathematics from an early age, teaching himself calculus at the age of 11 after having his curiosity roused by the symbols in a babysitter's textbook. With computer programming, however, he always felt he lagged behind his peers, since it only came to his attention when he was 11. Many of the other bright kids he associated with had already been coding for years by then, and he felt he never fully made up the lost ground. Partly for this reason, he felt more drawn to the theoretical side to computing, particularly computational complexity. It was at Cornell that he heard about and became interested in quantum computing, and so it was to computational complexity and quantum computing that he decided to devote himself.〔
