IQC community welcomes rising stars of quantum information science and technology
Friday, November 29, 2024
The week-long scientific event, Quantum Innovators (QI), showcased exceptional work of postdoctoral fellows.
Earlier this month, the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) opened its doors to rising star postdoctoral fellows in quantum information science and technology from around the world for a week of information sharing and networking.
Throughout the five-day event, participants engaged with local researchers and exchanged ideas during seminars that covered the latest research on a range of topics related to quantum information and science theory and applied research in computer science, mathematics, experimental science and engineering.
The participants also toured research laboratories and the research infrastructure of the Quantum Nanofabrication and Characterization Facility at the Mike & Ophelia Lazaridis Quantum-Nano Centre and the Research Advancement Centre.
These tours provided an in-depth look at the facilities and presentations from research group members, all of which highlighted IQC’s state-of-the-art resources and globally recognized research.
These workshops held at IQC, University of Waterloo, are funded by the Institute for Quantum Computing, with partial contribution from the Canada First Research Excellence Fund (CFREF) as part of the Transformative Quantum Technologies research initiative.
