The Penn Forum on Quantum Systems (FoQuS)

(This event has now passed.) We are delighted to announce that the University of Pennsylvania’s new Center for Quantum Information, Engineering, Science, and Technology (QUIEST) will be hosting its inaugural kickoff symposium this spring: The Penn Forum on Quantum Systems (FoQuS).

Using Quantum Sensors To Expand Scientific Discovery

By peering into the hearts of diamonds, scientists at the Penn Center for Quantum Information, Engineering, Science and Technology (Penn QUIEST) are developing new quantum-based sensor technologies that could revolutionize materials, chemistry, biology and medicine and data science.

A Quantum Computing Architect

Gushu Li has set himself the formidable task of figuring out how to build and program a quantum computer. While other researchers are focused on creating and manipulating the quantum bits, or qubits, that will take advantage of the laws of quantum mechanics to make more powerful computers, Li is concentrating on designing the hardware...

Next-Generation Computing Power

As a high-school student in St. Louis, MO, Anthony Sigillito thought he’d be a professional photographer. He was an avid landscape photographer, with a job taking portraits of school sports teams. Then, as a freshman at the University of Dallas, he fell in love with physics. When he embarked on his Ph.D. program at Princeton...
