He holds a PhD in\nPhysics and Quantum Information\, and has conducted research in qu antum\noptics in Canada and Germany. At IQC\, John works to break down qua ntum\nmechanics to its essence\, through classes\, workshops\, activities\ , and\nexhibits. John is interested in how to “count” light by measuri ng\nphotons\, the individual and indivisible particles that make it up.\n DTSTAMP:20250518T034128Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:682956e8c0111 DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20190926T190000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20190926T190000 URL:/institute-for-quantum-computing/events/entangled-s eries-quantum-security SUMMARY:Entangled: The Series - QUANTUM + security CLASS:PUBLIC DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nSECURITY IN THE QUANTUM FUTURE\n\nQuantum theory is quickly becoming quantum technology.\n DTSTAMP:20250518T034128Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:682956e8c09fe DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20190507T190000 SEQUENCE:0 TRANSP:TRANSPARENT DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20190507T190000 URL:/institute-for-quantum-computing/events/entangled-q uantum-pop SUMMARY:Entangled: The Series - QUANTUM + Pop Culture CLASS:PUBLIC DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\n“Quantum physics” has taken its position with “rocket science”\nin pop culture as a shorthand for frighteningly comp licated science.\nQuantum physics has also taken on a sort of magical conn otation in\nfiction\, with features like entanglement\, superposition\, an d\ntunneling\, spurring imagination. But where does the science draw the\n line? How much is joyful speculation\, and how much is disregard for\nreal ity? And if it’s always seen as either magical or scary\, how\ndoes that affect the perception of quantum science?\n DTSTAMP:20250518T034128Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
