Argonne researchers are helping shape conversations around the future of quantum technologies at this year’s IEEE Quantum Week.

Researchers from across the U.S. Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory will join the global quantum computing community in Toronto at IEEE Quantum Week September 13–18. This annual conference brings together researchers and others across industry to share their research and connect over the advancement of quantum computing and engineering. 

Argonne researchers have contributed to both the planning and programming of this year’s event with Laura Schulz specifically serving as the QCE26 QC-HPC-GenAI Nexus Chair and QCE26 Panels Chair and Rajkumar Kettimuthu serving as the QCE26 QNET Papers Track Program Chair. 

Find a full list of Argonne’s participation below.
