If you were going to do a PhD in quantum information in the US, but no longer trust the US government to provide a visa or maintain steady funding, you have options!
Many institutions will consider applications outside the normal timelines from students who are affected by the American meltdown.
π¨New Preprint: This time it is an invited short review article on the contribution of Canadian researchers in Quantum Error Correction and Mitigation in celebration of the 2025 International Year of Quantum Science and Technology.
Enjoy Reading!

Thanks @thiha-phy.bsky.social
It wouldnβt have been possible without your consistent support. Thanks for your radiant positivity which keeps our team motivated :)
π³ Excited to introduce Willow, Google Quantum AIβs latest chip. Willow 5xβs coherence times, beats the Surface Code QEC threshold, and the time to reproduce Willow's RCS on Frontier supercomputer is estimated at 10^25 yearsβ³! π thread #Quantum #Physics #Science
