I appreciated the opportunity to present a keynote at Quantum.Tech last week, where I discussed the transformational advances by the five Doe National Quantum Initiative centers, while highlighting opportunities for industry and other institutions to partner…followed by a panel diving even deeper.

In the first five years of the Quantum Systems Accelerator we not only build quantum computing prototypes, but also used them to start exploring interesting materials physics problems. We’re charting a path to scientific discovery with quantum tech. quantumsystemsaccelerator.org/2025/02/26/q...

Earlier this week, the Berkeley Lab Computing Sciences held its annual postdoc symposium. 20 of our highly talented postdocs gave 10 minute pitch talks about their research. It's a great learning experience, with a lot of mentoring. prior to the event. They did an awesome job!!!
