This is a conference in Nottingham, UK on theoretical quantum information aimed at early career researchers.
We are excited to launch this new opportunity for a Research Associate/Research Assistant in Quantum Modelling to join us in the Quantum Group in the School of Computing. You will join a diverse community of colleagues based in our state-of-the-art Urban Sciences Building, in the Newcastle Helix Campus, 10 mins walk from Newcastle Central Station.
Two-week Quantum Summer School organised by the University of Gdańsk and Kainos with a focus on quantum cybersecurity and quantum information.
Next-generation quantum computers must handle tens to hundreds of qubits/qudits, pushing into regimes where current methods for certifying multipartite, high-dimensional quantum resources no longer scale. Key challenges include the lack of scalable benchmarks and theoretical figures of merit that remain well-behaved in large, high-dimensional systems, the difficulty of maintaining stable calibrations during extensive data acquisition, and the need to harness these systems for practical applications such as quantum key distribution and human imaging with high‑energy photons.
We are an interdisciplinary team (see Quantum Information and Quantum Technologies | IT:U ) spanning experimental quantum physics, theoretical quantum physics, medical applications, and computing. We seek highly motivated PhD students who will pursue a defined project while contributing to the group’s shared goals.
Context : In the recent past, it has been established beyond doubt that by leveraging the unique quantum properties of sub-atomic particles, information can yield unparalleled advantages in diverse disciplines of information processing including computing, communication, cryptography and control. In fact, protocols such as quantum key distribution accomplish tasks hitherto believed impossible. Notably, these protocols have been demonstrated in practice and research is underway to scale them up. We are shaping up towards emergence of a new age in information processing.

Overview
We are seeking a person who will lead the Quantum Algorithms and Machine Learning research group of the newly established Center for Quantum-Enabled Computing (within the structures of the Center for Theoretical Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences) — the first scientific unit in Poland dedicated to the application of quantum effects in computing. The focus of the Group will be on combining theoretical research with potential implementations.
Seeking a Research Fellow in quantum foundations to work on the externally funded project, “Advancing Quantum Experiments to Test Reality Beyond Bell’s Theorem” held by Prof. Howard Wiseman, Assoc. Prof. Eric Cavalcanti and Dr Nora Tischler. We are all members of the Centre for Quantum Dynamics at Griffith University, now subsumed within QUATRI. This grant builds on the Local Friendliness No-Go theorem published by us and co-workers (Bong et al., Nature Physics 2020), in particular with new experiments inspired by it, and working out the implications of the theorem and variations on it.
I am recruiting PhD students for a newly formed group at the National University of Singapore (https://www.physics.nus.edu.sg/faculty/ernest-tan-ying-zhe/), on the topics of quantum information theory, quantum cryptography, and convex optimization applications in those areas.
