Iguaçu University (UNIG) is now an official member of the United Nations Academic Impact (UNAI), a global network of the United Nations that brings together higher education institutions committed to UN principles and to the 2030 Agenda, by promoting the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

In 2025, declared by the UN as the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, and in accordance with Article 207 of the Brazilian Constitution, which establishes the inseparability of teaching, research, and extension, UNIG will highlight the theme “Disruptive Innovations: How Artificial Intelligence and Quantum Computing Are Transforming Health.” This discussion will take place at the III International Symposium on Health Surveillance, an event integrated into the university’s Teaching, Research, and Extension Week (SEPEX), bringing together internationally recognized experts in technology.

Held annually, SEPEX aims to foster integration among faculty, undergraduate and graduate students, vocational education, and the broader community. Through the presentation of research and activities guided by UNIG professors, the event promotes knowledge exchange, critical reflection, and experience sharing across multiple fields, reinforcing the constitutional mission of uniting teaching, research, and extension for the benefit of society.

Title: “Introducción a la computación cuántica y aplicaciones prácticas”
Lecturer: Dr. Andrés A. Reynoso, CACIC 2025, XXXI Congreso Argentino de Ciencias de la Computación, XXIX Escuela Internacional de Informática. This course offers an introduction to quantum computing and information to computing science students attending the CACIC 2025 event.

Join deep tech communications agency TFD – Think Feel Do for a live Q&A with one of the world’s leading quantum communicators, Katia Moskvitch, to discuss how companies can translate complex technical propositions into compelling stories.

Not only is Katia a theoretical physicist, science communicator, and former journalist for the BBC, Economist, and WIRED, with over 20 years of experience turning complex technologies into compelling stories, but she has also served as the European Head of Communications for IBM Research and spearheaded the World Economic Forum’s Quantum Technologies initiative.

At a time when media and market interest in quantum is surging, we’ll be discussing how quantum companies can cut through the complexity and make quantum accessible without diluting its scientific integrity.

Join Stephanie Forrest, founder & CEO of TFD—Think, Feel, Do, and Katia Moskvitch for a live Q&A on:

• Quantum breakthroughs vs. hype: Learn Katia’s framework for evaluating quantum news and distinguishing genuine advances from marketing fluff.
• Communication evolution: Discover how quantum conversations have shifted over recent years, and where the trends might take us in 2026.
• Quantum + AI: Hear from Katia on how she navigates the complexity of communicating two transformative technologies simultaneously without overwhelming audiences.

The Department of Physics is proposing to organize a three-day Lecture Workshop on Recent Developments in Quantum Physics: Computation, Information, and AI, for students and teachers from 04/12/2025 to 06/12/2025 at BCM College, Kottayam, with a view to making the students gain in-depth knowledge on developments in the field of Quantum Mechanics. Six eminent Professors from various parts of India will handle twelve sessions during this three-day lecture workshop.

Ever wondered what happens when quantum computing meets game night? Join the UBC Quantum Club for Quantum Casino, a unique, interactive event where fun and physics collide!

At the heart of this evening is Quantum Poker—a custom-built game designed by the UBC Quantum Club executives to bring real quantum computing concepts to life. Using principles like superposition and entanglement, Quantum Poker showcases how quantum mechanics can revolutionize traditional gameplay.

🎮 Learn through play: Get hands-on with a quantum-inspired game
🧠 Discover real-world applications of quantum computing
👨‍🔬 Engage with students and enthusiasts in a casual, welcoming environment

This event is open to all backgrounds—whether you’re a seasoned quantum nerd or just curious.

No real money involved—just real fun and learning!

The workshop is dedicated to bringing leaders in the integrated photonics platform of Lithium Niobate On Insulator (LNOI) together with the aim of providing an overview of the advances that have been achieved over the last years, using this overview to speculate about future opportunities of LNOI, and providing recommendations on how these opportunities can be realized by coordinated research efforts. The workshop will cover all aspects, including simulation and fabrication, devices that use electro-optic and nonlinear optical properties of LNOI, and applications spanning from quantum optics to classical. This workshop is motivated as shortly after its emergence, the LNOI platform has taken the performance of electro-optical and nonlinear optical devices to a higher level, taking the lead over the bulk lithium niobate-based compounds developed over the last decades, making this unique workshop very timely, as it will provide a forecast of the future of this platform and boost coordinated research collaborations.

Un fin de semana para aprender, construir y demostrar aplicaciones cuánticas reales con Qiskit y partners académicos e industriales. Keynotes, zona de trabajo, y stands. Abierto a principiantes y perfiles avanzados.

Taking place in the context of the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ 2025), this year’s meeting marks a century since the foundational breakthroughs that gave rise to quantum mechanics—an intellectual revolution that transformed our understanding of nature. Over the past century, quantum physics has reshaped the language of modern science and laid the groundwork for much of today’s technology. As we stand on the brink of a second quantum revolution, with quantum computing, communication, and sensing rapidly transitioning from theory to reality, our goal is to foster discussion and collaboration across the various fields where quantum concepts are applied.

Quantum Days in Crete 2025 will bring together researchers specializing in condensed matter physics, quantum information, quantum field theory, and statistical physics. The meeting will focus on efforts to understand the collective behavior of quantum systems, both in and out of equilibrium, with applications ranging from foundational questions to emerging technologies.

Topics include

• Entanglement theory and experiments
• Quantum dynamics
• Integrability
• Quantum chaos
• Thermalisation
• Dynamics of quantum circuits
• Ultracold-atom experiments
• Quantum optics
• Numerical methods
• Quantum simulation platforms

Quantum computing is one of the most exciting frontiers in technology, and Austin’s scene is buzzing with potential. This is a networking and discussion meetup for everyone interested in the field—with many seasoned experts from leading quantum companies—and open to people with experience in quantum computing, other computing professionals, and anyone interested in learning more about quantum computing.

Join fellow quantum professionals and enthusiasts to:

• Share information on the latest breakthroughs and projects.
• Discuss possibilities, from big challenges to new opportunities.
• Make connections with others in Austin’s growing quantum community.
• Discuss whether Austin can become a quantum center of excellence and what it would require.

This is a great chance to learn, network, and talk about what we can do to help grow the quantum ecosystem right here in Austin.
