Dear Colleagues,

Please forward this information to who may be interested. Only one week left to register to the 16th Canadian Summer School on Quantum Information, which will be held in Jouvence, Québec, May 29th to June 7th 2017. The event is immediately followed by a Student Conference where students and postdocs are invited present their research. More information can be found here

Note that this year's school will focus on recent advances in the field, so a background knowledge of basic concepts (qubits, quantum circuits, basic quantum communication protocols and algorithms) is required.
