Overview:

CQIQC-VI will be the sixth in the series of biennial conferences jointly
organized by the Toronto Centre for Quantum Information & Quantum Control
and the Fields Institute, which aim to bring together researchers from a
broad set of areas ranging from quantum cryptography and computation to
quantum control to quantum foundations to device fabrication, in a setting
which encourages discussion and can help stimulate new collaborations and
interactions.

It is anticipated that CQIQC-VI will be a major international conference,
facilitating interactions between the different sub-fields being included.
The conference will involve a mix of invited and contributed talks, and
posters. There will be roughly 25 40-minute invited talks, delivered by
world leaders of the field and roughly 25 20-minute contributed talks, which
will be selected from what we expect (based on the previous meetings) to be
a large pool of truly excellent work from around the world. There will also
be at least one poster session, during which there will be an opportunity
for young researchers to present work. The meeting will involve researchers
at all stages of their careers, including participation by graduate
students.


Plenary Talks:

Jeff Shapiro, Massachusetts Institute of Technology Jeremy O’Brien,
University of Bristol
