Students in QuantumX’s Accelerating Quantum-Enabled Technologies program celebrated the end of the academic year with a social event last week (June 3). Graduate students shared and recognized their research accomplishments from the past year. The annual event allows students to showcase quantum-centric activations within the larger quantum community. Students from QuantumX’s partner MEM-C, were also invited for poster presentations, lightning talks and a reception. 

Quantum information is revolutionizing science and technology at an unprecedented pace. With breakthroughs emerging regularly, teaching the subject is as exhilarating as it is demanding.

Quantum science is having a moment. Stories about the potential of quantum seem to be everywhere these days, from network news to technical journals. But the history of quantum science actually dates back more than a century, when a small number of theoretical physicists identified strange phenomena at microscopic levels. Many brilliant scientists later, quantum is poised to transform technologies from computing to communications, bringing together physicists, engineers, computer scientists, chemists, and others.

UW ECE Research Assistant Professor Max Parsons says he is interested in big, tough-to-solve science and engineering problems, anything where there might be a significant question mark in people’s minds. Perhaps that interest drew him to focus on one of the most difficult and complex challenges of our time — making the promise of quantum computers and related technologies a practical reality.
