Join us for casual conversations with quantum researchers.

Chris Ferrie - Tuesday, December 15, 7:00 p.m.

We welcome Chris Ferrie of the University of Technology Sydney and Centre for Quantum Software and Information for our fifth Fireside Chat. Ferrie received his PhD in Applied Mathematics from IQC in 2012.

Photons in Space: the Next Frontier! These are the voyages of Canada's first Quantum Satellite Mission - the Quantum EncrYption and Science Satellite (QEYSSat). Its upcoming mission: To explore strange new physics, and enable secure communication across Canada and around the world. To seek out new discoveries and new ways to communicate... To boldly send photons where none have gone before!

Join us for casual conversations with researchers at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC).

Dr. John Donohue is a quantum physicist and science communicator, currently acting as the Scientific Outreach Manager at the Institute for Quantum Computing and University of Waterloo. He holds a PhD in Physics and Quantum Information, and has conducted research in quantum optics in Canada and Germany. At IQC, John works to break down quantum mechanics to its essence, through classes, workshops, activities, and exhibits. John is interested in how to “count” light by measuring photons, the individual and indivisible particles that make it up.

Security in the Quantum Future

Quantum theory is quickly becoming quantum technology.
