Workshop on Programmable Quantum Simulators based on 2D Materials (PQS2D) & Quantum Theory of Materials, Nanostructures and Devices (QTMND)
June 18 – 20, 2025
We are thrilled to announce the PQS2D/QTMND workshop, scheduled for June 18 to 20, 2025, at the Fairmont Le Château Montebello. This unique venue in Quebec is nestled along the Ottawa River, between Ottawa and Montreal.
The event will merge the Programmable Quantum Simulators based on 2D Materials (PQS2D) Annual Retreat with the University Research Chair in Quantum Theory of Materials, Nanostructures, and Devices (QTMND) program from the University of Ottawa, held by Prof. Pawel Hawrylak.
These exciting three-days will begin on June 18 at 1:00 PM and conclude on June 20 at 12:30 PM. It will feature co-PI talk sessions, HQP short talk sessions, special guest lectures, ad-hoc research meetings, poster sessions, and social events such as dinners.
Stay tuned for more details coming soon.
