The registration for the 2nd QSimFP workshop is open

Feb. 27, 2023

The Quantum Simulators of Fundamental Physics meeting to be held June 5-9 2023 at the Perimeter Institute in Waterloo, Ontario Canada. This workshop will serve as the yearly meeting for the consortium, providing a venue to share progress on the many research directions being pursued by consortium members. It will also provide an opportunity for the consortium to engage more broadly with researchers in Canada and internationally pursuing research in quantum simulation, cosmology, quantum gravity, and other topics. The workshop will include talks given by consortium members and researchers external to the consortium, ample time for informal interaction, a poster session, and an ‘elevator-pitch’ session to introduce your research area. All attendees will be invited to present their research in some format.

We hope that you are available to attend, and encourage you to register here: https://events.perimeterinstitute.ca/event/40/ as soon as possible. Limited funding is available to support local expenses for junior participants; please specify at the time of registration if you wish to be considered for this. The registration fee of $250 includes breakfast, lunch, and coffee breaks during the conference. Virtual attendance for a portion of the meeting will also be possible; if this is of interest, you must register for virtual attendance at the link above. We ask that you register by April 3, 2023 so that final preparations for the meeting can be made. For those who are not junior researchers applying for local expenses, we encourage you to make arrangements for your accommodations as soon as possible since summer in Waterloo can be quite busy.
