The QSG workshop will take place between the 2nd and 5th of May 2023, in Villa Tambosi, which is the ECT* Trento head quartier. It will be held this year for the first time and aims to become a recurrent, yearly, appointment gathering together early-stage and experienced researchers in the field of quantum science and technology.

The first aim of the QSG workshop is to offer seminars held by young scientists and leading researchers in theoretical and experimental quantum physics. The talks will be divided between senior and junior invited speakers, in addition to further contributions selected among all the participants. Moreover we will have special contributed talks from company and startup representatives working in the field of quantum science and technology. As a second purpose, the QSG workshop will try to promote and facilitate discussions between the students, postdocs, young researchers and experienced professors through some social activities such as: social dinner, aperitivo poster session, and a special taste-tour of the local Marzadro distillery.

The target audience is composed of local and international PhD students and early stage postdocs (about 50-70).

For this first edition of the QSG workshop, we would like to address the following topics:

  • Advances in quantum computing and quantum simulations
  • Development of new platforms for quantum technologies
  • Computational methods
  • Industrial application of cutting-edge research

Senior invited speakers of this year:

  • Valentina Brosco (CNR, ISC, Università 'La Sapienza' di Roma)
  • Tommaso Calarco (Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH, Universität zu Köln)
  • Juan Jose Garcia-Ripoll (Instituto de Física Fundamental)
  • Hannes Pichler (University of Innsbruck)
  • Ulrich Schollwöck (University of Munich)
  • Fabio Sciarrino (Università 'La Sapienza' di Roma)

Junior invited speakers:

  • Giuseppe Calajò (Università di Padova, INFN)
  • Marco Canteri (University of Innsbruck)
  • Federica Cataldini (TU Wien)
  • Carlos Gonzalez-Ballestero (University of Innsbruck)
  • Andreas Haller (University of Luxembourg)
  • Yijian Meng (University of Copenhagen)
  • Yuri Minoguchi (TU Wien)
  • Caterina Vigliar (Danmarks Tekniske Universitet)
  • Andrea Stanco (Università di Padova)
  • Filippo Vicentini (Ecole Polytecnique Paris)

- Reaching Trento from abroad Italy: 
 
the closest airport is in Verona, from there is 1h direct train to Trento. Bologna airport is also convenient, even if the train Bologna-Trento is 2h30 (but still direct connection).
Venezia, Bergamo airports are another option, but be check carfully the train/busses from there to Trento, because it could be a little more complicated. For example from Bergamo airport ("Orio al serio") there is no direct connection, and, at best, one has to change in Verona.
Milano Linate or Milano Malpensa are also other options.
Otherwise, from Munich (Germany) there is direct train ~4h, and as well from Innsbruck ~2h30.
 
 
- Accommodation:
the QSG workshop does not cover for your accommodation. We apologize for the fact that on the application form was written differently, it was an authomatic message that does not apply to our workshop.
Here a brief list of standard suggested hotels:

Hotel America

Hotel Buonconsiglio

HiHotels

Hotel Accademia

Hotel Everest

Garnì Villa Fontana

In general any places in the city center is good, since the center is very small.
Be careful that the workshop will be in Villa Tambosi, in the small village of "Villazzano". If you find a place to stay in Villazzano it may be convenient for reaching the workshop more easily, but it may be a bit isolated from the city. That's up to you.
 
- Reaching the workshop:
the workshop will be in the headquarter of ECT* at villa Tambosi in "Villazzano".
To reach the venue from the city there are two main options:
bus number 6 or train.
You can catch them both from the central train station. More info on the official local transport webpage:
