MEM-C held its 3rd annual Winter Symposium this past Tuesday. The event was held in conjunction with UW QuantumX, an initiative on campus involving several MEM-C faculty, most notably Fu who is the QuantumX Director. QuantumX was established as an interdisciplinary Deans-level initiative that seeks to advance and integrate QISE research, education, and commercialization across the UW community and its partners. This event combined MEM-C’s fundamental materials research with the broader quantum community at UW. This year’s MEM-C + QuantumX Symposium brought together nearly 100 attendees to view the current research of UW graduate students and postdocs contributing to fundamental research in quantum-based sciences. The three-hour event featured graduate student and postdoc poster sessions (~40 posters), remarks by Gamelin and Fu, and time for everyone to meet and discuss future collaborations.
