Our research follows 7,547 researchers, builders, lab leaders and public voices through cited biographies. Missing career records can lower counts. Outdated roles can overstate current counts and change ranks. Citation figures count 2 of the 2 people here now. People whose OpenAlex record may be incomplete or mixed are left out. Publication numbers from OpenAlex, as of 22 October 2026. Career and profile data as of 22 October 2026.

We estimate that 3 people shaping AI have worked or studied at Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information, including 2 (67%) here now and 1 with a former affiliation. That total covers 2 people with work roles and 1 recorded only as a student. As part of Austrian Academy of Sciences, Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information accounts for 3 of its 14 all-time people (21%) and 2 of its 6 current people (33%). Among 628 labs, Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information is tied for 111th by all-time people and tied for 45th by current headcount. All 3 people with profile topics work in quantum computing. Dated work records here are in 2003. Among the 1 former person with a known current role elsewhere, Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres and RWTH Aachen University employ the most today (1 each). The 2 current people with confident OpenAlex records have 129,295 combined citations and a median h-index of 114, led by Anton Zeilinger (86,571 citations).
