Masanori Hanada and team have been awarded funding by IQuS in Seattle for a workshop in 2023

The Incubator for Quantum Simulation (IQuS), associated with the University of Washington in Seattle, has awarded funding to a team to organise a ten-day workshop (12-23 June 2023) on “Quantum Computing, Quantum Simulation, Quantum Gravity and the Standard Model“. The organising team consists of Hrant Gharibyan (Caltech), Junyu Liu (U. of Chicago), Masanori Hanada, Enrico Rinaldi (U. of Michigan), Yuan Su (Google), and Brian Swingle (U. of Maryland). The aim of the workshop is to identify important problems in quantum gravity that can benefit from quantum simulation and also lead to new directions in the simulation of Standard Model physics, identify concrete steps, estimate realistic time frames, and draw a road map. Full details can be found at the IQuS events page (link here).
