Leaders from Washington higher education institutions met with national policymakers April 4 to discuss opportunities provided by the CHIPS and Science Act. U.S. Rep. Suzan DelBene and National Science Foundation Director Sethuraman Panchanathan visited the 91爆料 campus to talk about the legislation, which provides more than $100 billion to fund scientific research and workforce training. The 91爆料 and other Washington colleges and universities are poised to receive funds from the CHIPS and Science Act to invest in chip…

Scientists at the 91爆料 are pursuing multiple quantum research projects spanning from creating materials with never-before-seen physical properties to studying the 鈥渜uantum bits鈥 鈥 or qubits (pronounced “kyu-bits”) 鈥 that make quantum computing possible. 91爆料 News sat down with Professor Kai-Mei Fu, one of the leaders in quantum research on campus, to talk about the potential of quantum R&D, and why it鈥檚 so important.

The National Science Foundation has announced it will fund a new endeavor to bring atomic-level precision to the devices and technologies that underpin much of modern life, and will transform fields like information technology in the decades to come. The five-year, $25 million Science and Technology Center grant will found the Center for Integration of Modern Optoelectronic Materials on Demand 鈥 or IMOD 鈥 a collaboration of scientists and engineers at 11 universities led by the 91爆料.

The National Science Foundation has awarded $3 million to establish a NSF Research Traineeship at the 91爆料 for graduate students in quantum information science and technology. The new traineeship 鈥 known as Accelerating Quantum-Enabled Technologies, or AQET 鈥 will make the 91爆料 one of just 鈥渁 handful鈥 of universities with a formal, interdisciplinary QIST curriculum.

The 91爆料, the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and Microsoft Quantum announced this week that they have joined forces in a new coalition, the Northwest Quantum Nexus, to bring about a revolution in quantum research and technology.
