Quantum information theory is the foundation of quantum computers. Participants including leading physicists from Canada and across the globe will discuss the role of quantum information theory to tackle fundamental questions in Physics about our Universe. This five day workshop will hold morning and afternoon sessions with ample time for discussions with leading physicists in the field. The workshop will feature an evening public lecture by an internationally renowned physicist, to be attended by members of the local community, high school students and anyone interested in getting an insider's overview of the current state of theoretical physics at the forefront. It will also feature two panel discussions focused on Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in the academia.
