Winter School on Quantum Information Science for Chemistry
February 20-23, 2024
IPAM, CIQC, and the Advanced Molecular Architectures for Quantum Information Science (AMAQIS) hosted the fourth annual Winter School in Quantum Information Science. This year’s school will turn its focus to Quantum Information Science for Chemistry and will provide both in-depth primers and surveys of current areas of active research in atomic, molecular, and materials systems for quantum information science applications, as well as quantum algorithms alongside methods of “usual” quantum chemistry.
The school is aimed at early career participants, including graduate students, experimentalists, computational scientists, and theorists working in quantum information science and related disciplines.
We have run four winter schools now, the first two online and the recent two in person at IPAM.
Here are the links to the 2024 Winter School lectures:
Wes Campbell - Introduction to Quantum Information Science
Anna Krylov - Classical Quantum Chemistry for QIS
Nick Hutzler - Optical Cycling Centers
Nick Chilton - Molecular Spin Qubits
Birgitta Whaley - Quantum Algorithms for Chemistry
Long Programs
Long programs bring together researchers from mathematics and other disciplines, or multiple areas of mathematics, with the goal of facilitating collaborative, cross-disciplinary research. Senior, mid-career and junior researchers from around the world convene at IPAM for three months. The long program opens with a week of tutorials, which are followed by several (usually four) workshops on topics related to the overall theme of the program, and a culminating workshop at UCLA’s Lake Arrowhead Conference Center. Between the workshops, the participants organize a seminar series and other activities. IPAM offers housing and travel support to participants of long programs. An application is available online.
