Weekly QTurkey online workshop

Today, we start QBronze36 organized by QTurkey! For the following days, until Friday (September 28 – October 2, 2020), the workshop participants will be solving tasks about Quantum Computing and Programming. The workshop will be held online. For participants, we have prepared the lecture videos, which help them complete the tasks on their own. Every day, between 18:00-21:00, participants can ask their questions and share their progress with the mentors by Discord. Also, we will run daily online Zoom meetings. During the workshop, we will use the tutorial “Bronze” prepared by QWorld. It is a collection of Jupyter notebooks and each notebook has a couple of programming tasks to be solved by the participants. We use python and qiskit to code our quantum programs. Organizer: Özlem Salehi (QTurkey)Mentors: Caner Ercan, Cem Nurlu,…

The entangling event of QTunisia!

QCousins, QWorkshop, QWorld, Workshop

Already tomorrow (September 25, 2020), we start our entangling workshop with QTunisia! For 3 consecutive days we will give online lectures on Introduction to Quantum Computing and programming. The workshop will be held online. The event will be run by QWorld and hosted by QTunisia. For the participants, we have prepared the lecture videos as an aid in completing subsequent tasks. During the workshop, we will use the tutorial “Bronze” prepared by QWorld.

QIntern 2020 was successfully completed!

QWorld

We are happy to announce that we organized our first QIntern program during July-August 2020! This pilot program of QWorld ran for seven weeks, during which the participants, including students, worked with more experienced researchers and quantum technology enthusiasts. At the end of the event, the interns from over thirteen projects had the opportunity to present their works. The projects focused on various fields of quantum computer science, including quantum machine learning and quantum optimization. The interns did research on quantum computing with implementation on real devices, developed new educational materials, designed and implemented new software, and did educational research on quantum programming. At the end of QIntern 2020, the jury evaluated projects as well as presentations of the results and awarded prizes in two categories. For the best project:-…
