The 4th annual Nordic Quantum Life Science Round Table (NQLS) was held at Soria Moria on the 16th and 17th of september, hosted by NordSTAR, the Quantum Hub, OsloMet AI Lab and Simula. Since 2021, representatives from Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Norway have taken turns hosting the event. Among the attending are academics, researchers, politicians …
In regard to the most pleasant visit we had had on Monday, our leders, Christen our Rector, Laurence our Dean and André our department leader, has written an interesting and highly relevant opinion piece in Khrono: https://www.khrono.no/et-kvantesprang-for-en-viktig-teknologi/908439 Good read!
Image credit: Christen Krogh. We love having visitors at our Hub. Monday September 30th, we had particularly distinguished ones: Karianne Tung (minister of digitalization), Bjørn Arild Gram (minister of defence) and Oddmund Hoel (minister of higher education and research) came by. The occasion was a budget leak: The government will allocate 70 million kroner annually …
16.-20. september presenterte Vebjørn Bakkestuen og Andre Laestadius sine REGAL-prosjekter på konferansen Mathematical and Numerical Analysis of Electronic Structure Models (MANUEL). Konferansen ble arrangert av Professor Benjamin Stramm ved Universitetet i Stuttgart på campuset i Vaihingen. Her samlet de matematikere, fysikere og kjemikere fra hele verden som driver med matematisk og numerisk analyse innenfor elektronstrukturberegninger. …
10. og 11. september deltok kvantehuben på Finans Norge sin konferanse “Digital robusthet 2024 – svindel og cybersikkerhet”. Der diskuterte de informasjonssikkerhet og svindel i finansnæringen. Sølve var på plass for å fortelle om kvanteteknologi, og trusselen kvantedatamaskiner kan utgjøre mot dagens krypteringer i fremtiden. Les mer her!
Yves Rezus, lecturer in physics at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (AUAS), is joining the Quantum Hub team this year. Having a PhD in ultrafast spectroscopy, Yves led a research group for several years. He has always been eager to find out about the laws of nature and is passionate about sharing his understanding …
Vi er veldig glade for å ha fått Noa Cecilie Sæther med på laget! Noa studerar journalistikk på andre året hos oss på OsloMet. I tida framover vil ho hjelpe oss med reportasjar, bilder, tekst og anna som har med kvante-aktiviteten vår å gjere. Velkommen, Noa!
Professor Yves Rezus from the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (Hogeschool van Amsterdam) joined the Quantum Hub last week for his one-year sabbatical. During his time, he will participate in various Quantum Hub activities, including outreach and teaching. Specifically, he will contribute to our course on Quantum Information Technology, which aligns perfectly with his efforts …
The Arendal week has long since passed. And, in terms of technology, the winner of the battle for attention was quite undisputed: AI. There were, however, some events dedicated to emerging quantum technologies too. Two, to be specific. While few, less than 1 per mille of the number of AI related events, they were very …
To anyone in who happen to be in Arendal Tuesday August 13th: Please join the quantum session at 14.00! We are happy to see GlobalConnect raising the issue of the Norwegain participation in the quantum race, or, rather, the lack of such. They have put together very interesting panels of participans, many of whom are …
From 9th to 12th of June, we had the pleasure of hosting a little workshop on atoms and lasers – and a couple of other things too. This was put together in connection with a visit from our esteemed colleges from Warsaw University, prof. Katarzyna Krajewska (picture), prof. Jerzy Kaminski (prince George amongst friends) and …
Last Wednesday, Quantum Hub had the pleasure of welcoming Prof. Dr. Arthur Kolb, Vice President for Internationalisation and Equal Opportunities from Kempten University of Applied Sciences (Germany). Prof. Kolb showed great interest in our agenda and goals, particularly in the means and strategies we’re using to achieve them. He was especially curious about our two …
Last Tuesday, GoForIT hosted their annual conference. This year’s topic was AI, geopolitics & twin transition. It was a pleasure to see that the quantum agenda was included too. Clearly, Mali Hole Skogen, Technology and sustainability director ICT-Norway and the head of GoForIT, had not forgotten that she was there when Norway went quantum a …
Recently our faculty received funding from Ministry of Education and Research for 8 PhD positions. We are happy to announce that one of these will be allocated to a quantum-related topic. The project is lead by Kazi Shah Nawaz Ripon. We let him explain what it is about: Quantum-inspired evolutionary algorithms (QEAs) are a type …
Ina von Turow, entrepreneur and quantum enthusiast, has, for a long time now, contributed actively to the campaign for making Norway quantum ready. Her latest contribution in this regard is a podcast in Norwegian: Kvantespranget – a podcast where experts and other enthusiasts share thoughts and opinions on our quantum future. A version in English, …
Elise Kjørstad, journalist at Forskning.no, had obviously done her homework before visiting the hub last week. During the interview, both Sergiy and Sølve was made to think. Please read the interview here: https://www.forskning.no/hva-er-en-kvantedatamaskin/2353590
Sunday April 21st employees at the Oslo Metropolitan University had a very nice opportunity to give the rest of their families an impression of what goes on at their workplace. A lot of people, both young and old, found their way to Pilestredet 35 (P35), where they got served muffins, buns, chocolate milk, coffee and …
Bridging quantum theory and gravitation is a great and mind-thrilling challenge. Non-commutative geometry is considered to be a candidate for such a bridge. This mathematical concept integrates quantum principles like the non-commutativity of operators into the fabric of spacetime. We gained insights into this fascinating topic last Friday, April 12, from a talk by our …
Until recently we were not aware about ongoing quantum initiatives at the Norwegian Metrology Service (Justervesenet – JV). But then we got a pleasent e-mail from Susmit Kumar from JV’s Electricity group informing us about their mandate regarding accurate SI values of voltage, resistance, and current. During a very pleasent day-long meetup Thursday 11th of …
It was a pleasure for us to welcome podcast host Alexander Bendiksen at our hub once again. Clearly, some of our quantum fascination has rubbed off on him! Please tune in to his new podcast episode here (in Norwegian): https://open.spotify.com/episode/2jazRXMbyzgrre5dJUEXXP?si=fa3028bf608b4c52&nd=1&dlsi=4abac97f7b834f72 And do check out the other interesting episodes as well! About half of them are …
