Join QuantUM for our first speaker series of the 2025-2026 school year! We're co-hosting the event with the Scientific Computing Club, and it's open to the general public. Dr. Gokul Ravi, assistant professor in CSE and fellow at Michigan's Quantum Research Institute will be presenting a talk on quantum algorithms. The talk is tailored to students of all backgrounds, and no previous knowledge of quantum computing is required.

The event is from 6:00-7:00 PM in West Hall 340. We'll serve free food 🍕 at 5:40 PM across the hall in the Don Meyer common. Come learn about quantum software, converse with passionate peers, and eat some complementary grub 😋.

Talk Abstract:
Quantum computing (QC) is a transformative technology with the potential to revolutionize computing. Despite major theoretical and experimental progress over the past three decades, a significant gap remains between the demands of quantum applications and the capabilities of current hardware. QC still faces major challenges in delivering accurate, efficient solutions to real-world problems. The quantum ecosystem is inherently hybrid, with quantum devices tightly coupled to classical hardware and software. Advancing these components in a synergistic manner is essential to bridging this need-capability gap and enabling a practical quantum future. As the field continues to grow, substantial progress is needed at the quantum-classical interface, including: (a) scalable software for executing real-world applications on noisy devices, (b) low-cost, efficient classical hardware with minimal latency and bandwidth limitations for scaling up quantum processing, and (c) a smooth transition path from noisy devices to fault-tolerant systems. In this talk, I will highlight several examples of our research addressing these challenges.
