We are accepting registrations for #QEC23! The early registration deadline is August 15. For details visit: quantum.sydney.edu.au/qec23/ See you in Sydney!

Belated congratulations to Cory Aitchison on his first paper and Gates Scholarship to do his PhD at Cambridge. Dom Williamson explains our work in this thread

In fault-tolerant quantum computers, physical circuits implement encoded logical operations. Typically, the bulk of these physical circuits are syndrome extraction circuits, such as this one for the surface code. This makes them a key target for noise characterisation!

Very exciting. Quantum Australia brings together the nation’s quantum experts across industry and academia to make quantum technologies a reality. Australia is an amazing place to do quantum! Sydney Quantum Academy Sydney Nano smh.com.au/politics/feder…

Do you know about the fascinating mathematical ideas behind post-quantum cryptography? I wrote about how Australia should be training more people with deep mathematical skills for PQC: Mind-bending maths could stop quantum hackers, but few understand it theconversation.com/mind-bending-m…

What a huge week for #quantum! University of Sydney has been awarded $18.4 million to establish 'Quantum Australia' - a new national centre to help grow Australia's quantum industry and ecosystem. Read more: sydney.edu.au/news-opinion/n… Stephen Bartlett Sydney Nano

We had lots of fun at our Coogee quantum theory workshop this year, now you too can be part of it, talks now posted here youtube.com/playlist?list=…

Join us at the University of Sydney on Thursday night if you can for a fantastic public lecture by Prof Marcela Bilek

A reminder that we have an opening at Sydney for someone looking to start a research group in quantum theory. It's "level B/C" which roughly means tenure track in North American parlance. Contact me or Stephen Bartlett for info usyd.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/USYD_EXTERNAL_…

This year we have 3 scholarships available in any relevant area of physics & astronomy, and 1 scholarship available in nanophotonics for quantum control, interstellar travel & passive cooling. Applications close 26 June. Learn more: tinyurl.com/72ykjyju #PhDchat #studyscience

Back from a nice weekend full of activities! Andrew Doherty talks now about protected superconducting qubits.

Been having lots of fun here in Benasque! thanks to the organisers for a great workshop, but i refuse to repost the much less flattering photo of me at the panel this morning!

Come work with at Sydney in the School of Physics! We are looking for a theorist in photonics looking to start a research group, a continuing (roughly tenure-track equivalent) position usyd.wd3.myworkdayjobs.com/USYD_EXTERNAL_… happy to answer questions

My first paper—with Andrew Doherty and Robin Harper—is now out in PRX Quantum! More to come soon :)
