Quantum Innovators 2023

Quantum Nano Centre, 200 University Ave West, Room QNC 0101
À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ, ON, CA N2L 3G1

The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) now offers two different Quantum Innovators workshops to bring together the most promising young postdoctoral fellows.

Join us fromÌýNovember 6–8 for the theoretical stream, and fromÌýNovember 8–10 for the experimental stream.

Participants may choose to attend just their stream, or attend both streams across the five days.

These workshopsÌýheld at IQC,ÌýUniversity of À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ, are partly fundedÌýby theÌýÌý(CFREF) as part of theÌýTransformative Quantum TechnologiesÌýresearch initiative.

Nature-Inspired Nanotechnologies

IQC Seminar - Jong-Souk Yeo, Yonsei University

Quantum Nano Centre, 200 University Ave West, Room QNC 0101
À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ, ON, CA N2L 3G1

Biomimetic or nature-Inspired technologies are referring to the emerging fields where innovations are strongly inspired by the wisdom from nature or biological systems. Multiple levels of approaches are feasible from nature-inspiration – adaptation of how nature works, adoption of what nature provides, or replication of natural processes and functionalities for eco-friendly, sustainable, and highly efficient technologies. In this talk, nature-inspired approaches will be introduced for the nano-bio and nano-IT convergence research in the areas of nanostructure-cell interactions [1], nano-bio sensorics [2], biomimetic optical nanostructures [3], stretchable electronics [4], quantum plasmonics [5], and neuromorphic semiconductor technologies. Along with the research, recent efforts at Yonsei University will be introduced about the School of Integrated Technology where research and education are organically integrated for the technology convergence, and Yonsei Science Park where innovation ecosystem is established for IT-Bio Cluster Hub hosting Global Bio Campus and IBM quantum computer. This research was supported by the MSIT (Ministry of Science and ICT), Korea, under the ICT Consilience Creative program (IITP-2019-2017-0-01015) supervised by the IITP (Institute for Information & communications Technology Planning & Evaluation), the Ministry of trade, Industry and Energy (MOTIE) and Korea Institute for Advancement of Technology (KIAT) through the International Cooperative R&D program (Project No. P0019630) and by the Human Frontier Science Program (RGP0047/2019).

Quantum Today: The Quantum Ethics Project

Join us for Quantum Today, where we sit down with researchers from the University of À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµâ€™s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) to talk about their work, its impact and where their research may lead.

In this special session, we’ll be joined by Joan Arrow and Özge Gülsayin of the , a team of researchers exploring the intersection of quantum and society. We’ll discuss how to advocate for the responsible and inclusive development of quantum technologies through education and research, and why an ethics lens is important in even the early stages of technological innovation.

Mitacs Globalink Research Award (Quantum Stream) webinar

Online webinar through

The University of À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ and Mitacs will be holding a joint webinar onÌýThursday, November 23rdÌýat 10amÌýto share information about their newÌý, which provides fundingÌýfor bilateral student travelÌýwith international university labs.

In this session, Amanda Green and Etienne Pineault, Senior Advisors with Mitacs, will provide information and updates on how to leverage Mitacs funding to build collaborative research projects with international university partners.Ìý

Following the presentation, we will answer your questions about finding a partner, deciding on Mitacs eligibility and navigating program requirements (including how to work with our team to submit successful funding applications). Regan Child, International Grants and Contracts Manager with the Office of Research, will be on hand to offer assistance.

IQC Student Seminar Featuring Amolak Ratan Kalra

Arithmetic and Synthesis of Quantum Circuits

Research Advancement Centre, 475 Wes Graham Way, Room RAC 2009, À¶Ý®ÊÓÆµ, ON, CA N2L 6R2

In this talk I will introduce some basic aspects of quantum circuit synthesis over various gate sets for qubits and qutrits. The main reference for this work is:ÌýÌý
