Quantum Glue Meetings

This page announces regular meetings, journal clubs, and review seminars that take place at the UPV/EHU in Leioa campus and DIPC in Donostia on any topic on QUANTUM (physics, technologies, information, computation, simulation, communication, sensing…)

Quantum researchers, postdocs, PhD, and master students are welcome to assist and participate.

We meet on regular basis every second week on Wednesday from 11:40 am to 12:40 am in the seminar room in the physics department.

There are two ways to participate:

  • Journal-club style, in which each session is led by one of the participants by presenting (slides or blackboard) a paper of her/his interest (own or others) and which may be of interest to the rest of the participants.

  • Short blackboard/slides crash course (max a couple of sessions) to introduce some technicalities about some state-of-the-art methods of interest to other participants not experts in the field.

For suggestions, please contact:
