CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:ETSI and the Institute for Quantum Computing\n[https://uwater
 loo.ca/institute-for-quantum-computing/] are pleased\nto announce the 10
 th ETSI/IQC Quantum Safe Cryptography Conference\,\ntaking place in Sing
 apore on May 14-16\, 2024. The event will be\nhosted by the Centre for
  Quantum Technologies\, National University\nof Singapore [https://www.qu
 antumlah.org/].\n\nThis event was designed for members of the business\, g
 overnment\, and\nresearch communities with a stake in cryptographic standa
 rdization to\nfacilitate the knowledge exchange and collaboration required
  to\ntransition cyber infrastructures and business practices to make them\
 nsafe in an era with quantum computers. It aims to showcase both the\nmost
  recent developments from industry and government and cutting-edge\npotent
 ial solutions coming out of the most recent research.

SUMMARY:Quantum Today: The Quantum Ethics Project
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Live on YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5JUnjsS4AHc]\n
 \nJoin us for Quantum Today\, where we sit down with researchers from the\
 nUniversity of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) to\ntalk
  about their work\, its impact and where their research may lead.\n\nIn th
 is special session\, we’ll be joined by Joan Arrow and Özge\nGülsayin 
 of the Quantum Ethics Project\n[https://www.quantumethicsproject.org/]\, a
  team of researchers\nexploring the intersection of quantum and society. W
 e’ll discuss how\nto advocate for the responsible and inclusive developm
 ent of quantum\ntechnologies through education and research\, and why an e
 thics lens is\nimportant in even the early stages of technological innovat
 ion.\n\n

 to catch a photon in the\nsky\, and how this technology can be used to kee
 p our communication\nsafe and secure. Katanya coordinates the Science Team
  for the Quantum\nEncryption and Science Satellite (QEYSSat) mission\, whi
 ch is building\na satellite that can detect individual particles of light 
 called\nphotons sent from the ground to outer space.

SUMMARY:Candice Harris and Rowan Thomson – Actions to advance equity\,\nd
 iversity\, and inclusion in science
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:There's growing awareness of the lack of diversity in science a
 nd the\npresence of barriers to inclusion. What factors lead to disparit
 ies\nin representation? Why should we be motivated to effect change? What\
 ncan we do to change things? Will our actions really make a\ndifference?
  \n\nThis presentation will focus on ideas to challenge the status quo 
 –\nactions to advance equity\, diversity\, and inclusion (EDI). We will\
 ndiscuss recent research to illustrate and raise awareness of\nthe many
  EDI challenges in science\, then explore various practical\nways to tak
 e action to advance EDI. These practical actions stem\nfrom our recently
  released \"Science is For Everyone\"\nTeaching toolkit\, which provides
  an abundance of ideas to\ndiversify science education and further supp
 ort recruitment\,\nretention\, and advancement of all students. We will 
 touch on the\nimportance of diversifying content and talk about how Indig
 enous\ncontent is being brought into post-secondary science courses.\nF
 inally\, we will give an overview of other exciting science EDI\ninitiati
 ves across research and academic life.
