Aboutqmeets

Format

When and where

We usually meet at 14:00 – 15:15 CET (check talks) over Zoom (join the mailing list for the link). We have two talks of 20 + 10mins each, followed by 15mins of general discussion. We record every session and upload it to our public YouTube channel.

Bridging gaps

A deeper understanding requires several perspectives – the big picture and the details and/or theory and experiment. Sharing knowledge outside our own echo chamber is key for collective growth. qmeets talks cover various topics aimed at connecting quantum communities. We always invite a duo of scientists from a collaboration.

Theory + Experiment: A theoretical and an experimental physicist share their views on a recent discovery.

PI + YI: A principal investigator provides an overview in the first talk, upon which a young investigator presents the latest results in the second talk.

PI + PI: Two principal investigators present their research field along with latest developments.

Topics

We categorize qmeets talks in five fields:

Quantum Information & Computation (QI)
Condensed Matter (CM)
Atomic, Molecular & Optical Physics (AMO)
Quantum Fields & High Energy Physics (HEP)
Quantum Gravity (QG)

Values

Community first

Quantum physicists run qmeets, and everyone can participate. You can suggest speakers or topics, volunteer to chair a session or join the team to grow our community.

Respect

Respect is warranted – no question is dumb. True enrichment comes from the plurality of voices only if they receive a safe space to speak and qmeets always guarantees such an environment. We will not tolerate any form of discrimination. We particularly encourage all minorities in academia to participate and apply for a talk.
