(EN) Our guests, Adriana Martins, professor at the Federal Institute of Goiás, Formosa, Anderson Alburquerque of QUIIN – Senai Cimatec, and Claudia Dansa of UNICAMP, will chat with us about teaching quantum at the high school level.
As part of National Science Week, we’re thrilled to invite you to a public talk by Fazilah Nothlawala on the fascinating topic “Quantum imaging ghosts with patterns of light.”
A special school session dedicated to inspiring young women to pursue careers in science, focusing on quantum technologies.
In celebration of National Science Week 2025 and the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ), the South African Quantum Technology Initiative (SA QuTI) brought quantum science to life at the Johannesburg Botanical Gardens. This exhibit offered an engaging experience for high school learners, introducing them to foundational quantum concepts such as entanglement through interactive displays. The event sparked curiosity and inspired a deeper appreciation for science in an outdoor setting.
As part of the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ), the South African Quantum Technologies Initiative (SA QuTI) proudly participated in the launch of National Science Week at Tshwane University of Technology (TUT). The exhibit featured engaging and interactive displays aimed at sparking curiosity and raising awareness of quantum science among both high school learners and university students. Through hands-on demonstrations and insightful presentations, SA QuTI showcased the transformative potential of quantum technologies, encouraging young minds to explore the future of science and innovation.
QSUN, SAQuTI & NITheCS Seminar: ‘Remarks on the Use and Properties of Matrix Continued Fractions in Quantum Physics.’ Prof. Miloslav Znojil (DUT & University of Hradec Králové, Czech Republic).
The American Physical Society (APS) Austin Meetup on Thursday, September 11, 2025, will feature a panel discussion titled “The Race to Scale: Which Quantum Technologies Will Win Which Applications, and Why?” Experts in quantum hardware will explore the leading platforms in computing, networking, and sensing, as well as the state of quantum error correction for commercial applications.
The event provides an opportunity to gain insights into the future of quantum technologies and their practical implications across various industries. This gathering will bring together academia, industry leaders, and innovators for a discussion on the advancements shaping the quantum landscape. Here is the website, and registration is open:
As part of the International Year of Quantum (IYQ), the ‘Science Spaza Space: Quantum Edition’ brings quantum science to life through engaging, youth-friendly storytelling and accessible science communication. This special edition, featured in the Daily Maverick, showcases how quantum concepts – often seen as complex and abstract – can be made relatable and fun for learners, educators, and the general public.
Through comics, interviews, and interactive content, the issue explores quantum ideas in everyday language, helping to spark curiosity and build understanding across diverse communities. It’s a celebration of collaboration, creativity, and the power of science to inspire.
Distributed in Johannesburg, Cape Town, and throughout science centres across South Africa.
Embedded in the world premiere of the cantata “Die Ordnung der Wirklichkeit,” composed by Manuel Durão, the designated DPG President, Heike Riel (IBM, Head of the Science & Technology Department and Lead IBM Research Quantum Europe) will give an Evening Talk.
We’re excited to welcome Dr. Kelvin Mpofu from the CSIR as our featured speaker in this engaging seminar series. The event will be held in a hybrid format, with in-person attendance at Wits, Gatehouse, and online participation available.
Seminar Topic: Quantum technologies for next-generation diagnostic devices.
