Bringing quantum algorithms to the real world

Learn more

We study quantum algorithms and their applications to problems in natural sciences (physics, chemistry) and practical computing (machine learning, AI, optimization), and methods to make them compatible with near-term quantum devices.

Our vision is to make real-world quantum computing practical, and integrate theory, experiment and applications.
