We are happy to announce the call for nominations for the 2025 Paul Ehrenfest Best Paper Award for Quantum Foundations.
We are hiring a postdoctoral researcher and a PhD student to join a strong research team to work on quantum errorcorrection for cold atomic platforms, funded by the Bundesministerium für Forschung, Technologie und Raumfahrt. The topics range from abstract considerations to hardware-tailored approaches.
We are advertising a postdoc position in the field quantum information theory and quantum computing with current application deadline December 27th 2025. It is part of the newly established collaboration project, titled Many‐body Atom Gates In Cold‐atom Quantum computers (MAGICQ), between Jena, Stuttgart, and Ulm in the framework of the QPhoton initiative funded by the Carl-Zeiss foundation.

Following the success of QALYPSO 2024 and QALYPSO 2022, we are excited to announce the next edition of the QALYPSO Summer School on quantum technologies.
Save the Date: 31 August - 4 September 2026*
Location: Old University Building (Valletta Campus), Valletta, **Malta
QALYPSO 2026 will bring together undergraduate students, master's students, PhD researchers, and postdocs for five days of intensive learning in the beautiful Maltese archipelago. This edition will focus on three cutting-edge topics:
Postdoc position in theoretical quantum information science is available at the Institute of Fundamental Technological Research, Polish Academy of Sciences, in Warsaw, Poland. Successful candidate will work in the team of Prof Alexander Streltsov on one of the following topics: Quantum catalysis, Quantum resource theories, Quantum communication and quantum computation.
We are offering a PhD position at IFT Madrid, to work at the interface of quantum many-body physics, quantum computation, and high-energy physics.
The successful candidate will join the Quantum Matter and Information group at IFT and will be co-supervised by Pablo Sala de Torres-Solanot and Daniel González-Cuadra.
Due to administrative constraints, applications must be submitted as soon as possible in order to be considered eligible. The expected starting date is next spring.
Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the next online seminar on QOART (Quantum optics and related topics)!
Speaker: Roman Goncharov
Title: Numerical analysis of a free-space subcarrier wave quantum key distribution system for ship-to-port communication
We invite you to attend an online-only Episode LXXII of the Warsaw Quantum Computing Group meetups, organized by Fundacja Quantum AI and QPoland!
On 18.12.2025, at 18:00 UTC+1, Konrad Łącki will give a talk "Introduction to the FPGA-based QUBIT Emulator for Physical Simulations of Quantum States".

As the Postdoctoral Research Fellow, you will undertake research on quantum communication systems using the sneakernet model of quantum comms [arXiv: 1410.3224]. You will work with hardware models of quantum memory systems, specifically in Ion-Trap, neutral atom and donor based systems, utilising high-density quantum low density parity check codes.
As the Postdoctoral Research Fellow, you will undertake research on quantum error correction and large-scale, error-corrected system design utilising Quantum dot qubits in Silicon. You will be required to act as principle architectural scientist for UTS:QSI’s quantum compilation system, Rottnest. Your role will be to work with the Rottnest design team and leading researchers and industry partners focused on quantum computing in Silicon quantum dot systems to integrate large-scale architectural models for silicon spin quantum computers with our Rottnest compiler framework.
