4 rue Elsa Morante 75013 Paris
The Graduate School of Quantum technologies of Université Paris Cité, the Physics Department, IRIF (Institut de Recherche en Informatique Fondamentale) and MPQ (Matériaux et Phénomènes Quantiques) laboratory are joining forces for the 2022 edition of the Fête de la Science. Together, they are offering high school students a course entitled “Discovering Quantum Technologies”.
Quantum technologies are a rapidly developing field. It combines the skills of computer scientists and physicists to develop future systems that will enable information to be processed, measured and transmitted efficiently. This course enables high school students to discover the resources of this world: from twin photons to cryptography and trapped ions! The aim is to introduce them to quantum technologies from a computer and physical perspective.
Programme
- Conference on cryptography, presented by Sylvain PERIFEL – Lecturer (Université Paris Cité/IRIF)
- Workshop on the BB84 protocol/Introduction to qubits, presented by Sophie LAPLANTE Professor (Université Paris Cité/IRIF)
- Workshop on entangled photons, presented by the Quantum Technologies and Information team of the MPQ laboratory (Université Paris Cité/CNRS)
- Workshop on trapped ions, presented by the Quantum Information and Technologies team of the MPQ laboratory (Université Paris Cité/CNRS)

[FIRE Call for applications] Meet our PhD students FIRE!
The Frontières de l’Innovation en Recherche et Éducation (FIRE) Doctoral School is an international and interdisciplinary PhD program accredited by the Université Paris Cité (UPCité) and co-accredited by the Université Paris Sciences et Lettres (PSL).
FIRE welcomes students who are passionate about contributing to Planetary Health and the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It hosts research projects that often fall outside the scope of traditional doctoral schools due to their unconventional and cross-disciplinary nature. We interviewed three of our PhD students, who shared their thesis topics, explained why they chose the FIRE doctoral school, and offered advice for the next cohort.
