International conference on quantum simulation – QSim2026
Amsterdam will to host QSim2026, the premier international conference dedicated to the rapidly evolving field of quantum simulation. Bringing together a multidisciplinary community of physicists, computer scientists, and chemists, the event aims to bridge the gap between theoretical frameworks and cutting-edge experimental platforms.
Research semester on Quantum Algorithms and Quantum Error Correction
Registration is now open for a new research semester program, which will comprise an initial summer school followed by two dedicated research workshops. The program centers on two foundational pillars of QuSoft’s research agenda: Quantum Algorithms and Quantum Error Correction. Over the course of the semester, these topics will be examined from their core principles […]
QuSoft celebrates ‘founding fathers’ of Quantum Information: Peter Shor, David Deutsch, Gilles Brassard & Charles Bennett
Last Friday, November 11, 2022, the celebrated quantum information scientists and longtime collaborators Charlie Bennet and Gilles Brassard joined us for a special edition of the Qusoft seminar in celebration of them being awarded the Breakthrough prize in Physics, together with Peter Shor and David Deutsch. Showing themselves as masters of their craft, both Gilles […]
QuSoft Seminar: Special Edition
Later update to this post – You can view the QuSoft seminar now here: —————- From the moment QuSoft was established, every Friday of the week a QuSoft seminar was organised (with some exceptions). What started as something for just the QuSoft researchers grew into a well-known seminar for which scientists from all over the […]
Probability and consequences of living inside a computer simulation by Gilles Brassard
Last December 2020, Professor Gilles Brassard of the Université de Montréal was the first to be appointed on the new Turing chair for Quantum Software at the University of Amsterdam (UvA). He joined QuSoft, the Dutch research centre for quantum software of which the UvA is one of the partners, for a period of six […]
