Northern Quantum Meeting IX

Northern Quantum Meeting IX

The Northern Quantum Meeting IX (NQM9) will be the ninth instalment of a series of biannual meetings.

Attended by members of the universities in the north of England, and in particular of the N8 Research Partnership, the NQM9 will be hosted by the University of Sheffield.

The previous meeting was held in York. 

The aim of the Northern Quantum Meetings is to bring together researchers working on a range of topics within Quantum Information Science and Technologies (QIST), with an emphasis on providing PhD students and early career researchers a platform to network and showcase their work.
