Ewha Frontier 10-10 Project Team from Department of Physics Hosts 1st ICQS 2024

이화 프론티어 10-10 물리학과 사업단 <제1회 ICQS 2024> 개최Ewha Frontier 10-10 Project Team from the Department of Physics, headed by Professor William Jo, hosted the International Conference on Quantum Simulation 2024 (ICQS 2024) from Wednesday, June 19 to Friday, June 21 at the Lee Sam-bong Hall of the ECC building. 


The Center for Quantum Materials Research from the Department of Physics is one of the teams selected for the Ewha Frontier 10-10 Project in leading research fields, and now conducts research in fields such as nano-optics and quantum metamaterials, renewable energy, next-generation semiconductors and intelligent devices, quantum computing, nano-bio and biophysics, condensed physics theory, and gravitational waves and quantum gravity. This conference was organized for the first time this year to bring together world-renowned scholars in quantum computing and quantum simulation to discuss the latest research achievements and future prospects, and to strengthen networking among related institutions.

Notably, leading experts in quantum computing and simulation, such as Professor Mikhail Lukin of Harvard University, Professor Steven Girvin of Yale University, Professor William Oliver of MIT, Professor Chris Monroe of Duke University, Dr. Pedram Roushan of Google, and Dr. Jay Gambetta of IBM, delivered in-depth lectures on quantum computing and quantum simulation based on various physical platforms, including superconducting qubits, ion qubits, and neutral atom qubits. The academic depth of the event was further enhanced by the participation of faculty from prestigious universities such as Tsinghua University in China and the University of Tokyo in Japan. The conference received high praise from participants for its diverse program of keynote and guest lectures, as well as poster sessions where researchers presented and discussed their work.
