The annual Quantum Thermodynamics conference QTD 2021will take place online from 4th to the 8th of October 2021. Our members Nicolas Brunner (UNIGE) and Géraldine Haack (UNIGE) are in the organizing committee.
Our member Anna Beliakova (UZH) contributes to the weekly TagesAnzeiger’s outreach “Test your math skills” (DE), consisting of riddles and puzzling questions to put your math skills to test. This week’s episode was The Rabbit Riddle.
Our member Nicolas Gisin (UNIGE) will be a Plenary Speaker at the world-renowned conference for laser science and photonics, CLEO (Online, 09-14th May 2021). His talk will take place 11th May and be entitled “From quantum foundations to quantum communications and back”
We are delighted to announce that our member Nicolas Gisin (University of Geneva) is amongst the list of world-class plenary speakers of the upcoming online Numerous Numerosity: interdisciplinary conference on mathematical cognition, fundamental science, and philosophy of mathematics. His talk is scheduled for 26th May.
14 April 2021 is World Quantum Day! On the occasion of the launch of this initiative, the Quantum Center, ETH Zurich invites you, your family and friends to an online interview with Professors Yiwen Chu and our member Renato Renner, moderated by doctoral student Chiara Decaroli.
