SUMMARY:QSim2024
DESCRIPTION:Recent experimental advances in controlling quantum coherence present new opportunities to realize quantum simulation of complex quantum many-body systems. Quantum simulators based on a variety of architectures\, including ultracold atoms and molecules in optical lattices\, trapped ions\, Rydberg gases\, isolated spins in solids\, and superconducting circuits\, proffer rich playgrounds for Hamiltonian engineering and time-dependent control of many-body quantum systems. Many of these systems can routinely achieve parameter regimes and sizes that are seemingly intractable to simulate on a classical computer. \nQSim is an international annual conference on quantum simulation that aims to bridge theory and experiment\, bringing together physicists\, engineers\, chemists\, material scientists\, mathematicians\, and computer scientists working at the forefront of quantum simulation and related problems that include applications\, algorithms\, verification\, noise\, scaling\, etc. for both analog and digital approaches. A special session midweek will be devoted to charting the future of the field. We hope that this conference will stimulate interactions across disciplines and unveil new connections between seemingly disparate aspects of physics. \n  \nInvited Speakers\n\nAndrew Baczewski\, Sandia National Laboratories\nImmanuel Bloch\, Ludwig-Maximilians University\nDolev Bluvstein\, Harvard University\nAnthony Chen\, Caltech\nToby Cubitt\, University College London / Phasecraft\nStefanie Czischek\, University of Ottawa\nEugene Demler\, ETH Zürich\nDi Fang\, Duke University\nAndrás Gilyén\, Alfréd Rényi Institute of Mathematics\nAram Harrow\, MIT\nRobert Huang\, Google Quantum AI / Caltech\nWilliam Huggins\, Google Quantum AI\nAbhinav Kandala\, IBM\nXiao Mi\, Google Quantum AI\nMario Motta\, IBM\nGuido Pagano\, Rice University\nMonika Schleier-Smith*\, Stanford University\nFederica Surace\, Caltech\nTim Taminiau*\, QuTech / TU Delft\nTingrei Tan\, University of Sydney\nRuben Verresen\, Harvard University\n\n  \nConference Organization Sponsors\nThe QSim 2024 conference organization is sponsored by the NSF Quantum Leap Challenge Institute for Robust Quantum Simulation and the University of Rhode Island.

SUMMARY:The Quantum Science GRC - Many-Body Quantum Systems: Quantum Computing\, Simulation\, Sensing\, and Emerging Platforms
DESCRIPTION:The Quantum Science GRC is a premier\, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research\, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide\, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities\, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks\, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages\, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field. \nQuantum information science has made remarkable strides\, with transformational breakthroughs in even the last five years. Quantum computers are becoming increasingly powerful\, and companies and researchers are exploring their potential for solving complex problems\, having now demonstrated first results that go beyond the capabilities of classical simulators. Despite these advances\, critical challenges remain between present capabilities and transformative\, fault-tolerant quantum computing: development of error correction codes to mitigate the effects of decoherence; development of scalable hardware architectures; and even discovery of algorithms that efficiently leverage quantum advantage. Furthermore\, establishing practical quantum networks requires further exploration. \nThis GRC aims to convene experienced and early-career researchers from both academic and industrial backgrounds\, fostering discussions\, idea exchange\, and the juxtaposition of theoretical advancements with experimental achievements. it will encompass a diverse range of topics\, spanning novel approaches to fundamental principles\, quantum dynamics\, and information scrambling. It will delve into innovative applications of quantum advantage and the integration of quantum computers with quantum materials. Advances in quantum metrology and sensing will be highlighted\, alongside discussions on emerging applications and platforms in quantum science and simulation.

The two day conference is focused on how quantum can deliver significant benefits to organizations today. \nThe agenda will be packed with talks and demos of real-world quantum applications across logistics and manufacturing\, government\, life sciences and other sectors.   You will also: \n\nLearn how the power of generative AI and quantum computing will work together to solve large-scale commercial applications.\nHear from leading researchers about the performance of D-Wave’s technology versus both classical and quantum alternative technologies.\nHear from D-Wave about the latest quantum technology and software\, and learn from experts how to get started with quantum.\nNetwork with your peers and learn from the experience of those who have built and implemented quantum applications.\nHave fun! On Monday night (June 17) we are planning an excursion to an island in Boston Harbor for a real New England clambake! (that means lobster\, for you non-New Englanders).\n\nAttending Qubits in person is always an excellent opportunity to connect with other innovators involved in quantum computing\, but if you can’t come to Boston\, register for the livestream of the first day’s morning talks. \nWhether you join us in Boston or attend online\, Qubits is always a must-attend event.

SUMMARY:Ready for Quantum? Quantum Technology Skills and Competences in Hiring and Training
DESCRIPTION:Ready for Quantum? Quantum Technology Skills and Competences in Hiring and Training \nDeveloped by Aarhus University in context of the QTIndu project and funded by the European Commission\, this series of workshops aims to help business professionals navigate the emerging trends and necessary resources linked to quantum technology and its applications. These in-person seminars are brought to you by Berlin Quantum and Leap Berlin. \nqtindu.eu | berlinquantum.de | leap.berlin \nTarget Audience: HR professionals\, team leaders\, managers\, and executives involved in hiring and training efforts within the quantum technology domain. \nDesigned to leverage recognized community-produced tools\, this course equips companies with invaluable resources to enhance their recruitment\, education\, and training efforts in quantum technology (QT). This course offers a strategic approach to talent acquisition and development in the field of QT. Over 2.5 hours we delve into specific tasks and considerations pertinent to hiring and training managers. Hiring managers will learn and train to define job functions\, identify diverse talent sources\, and establish evaluation protocols\, while training managers will identify core competencies\, evaluate training resources\, and assess in-house training material development. \nParticipants will familiarize themselves with the essentials for strategic Quantum Hiring and Training. This includes resources such as the Competence Framework for Quantum Technologies and results from research into Quantum Training Hotspots and ongoing global Quantum Job Analysis. A central tool covered in the course is the innovative GPT-job post writing service customised for quantum-adjacent positions.
