Dear Colleagues,



            Please forward this information to who may be
interested. Registration is now open for 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.
