The 1st Quantum Connection Winter SchoolGroup Photo

Please check here for the recorded videos

This winter school offers students and young researchers an immersive experience into the fundamental and technological frontiers of quantum science. Through extensive lectures delivered by Nobel laureates and pioneering researchers from across the globe, the participants will (1) delve into the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics; (2) explore the intricate landscape of quantum algorithms and communication; and (3) witness firsthand the cutting-edge advancements in experimentation and implementation, providing unparalleled insight, breadth and depth into the field. This school aims to acquaint students and young researchers with these recent breakthroughs, inspiring them to embark on new ideas and new directions.Check https://www.quantum-connections.net/ for more information.-For interested Ph.D. students and junior researchers in the frontiers of quantum physics and condensed matter physics.
