Centre for Quantum Technologies

We've begun the search for our next Director, who will also be hired as a Full Professor at the Department of Physics at the National University of Singapore. More information here: https://nus.edu/4tPuwNT

Congratulations to CQT PhD student Chen Jinyan! 👏🥤 She successfully defended her thesis "Characterization and Recovery in Quantum Systems: From Quantumness and Entanglement Detection to Information Restoration". She was advised by Principal Investigator Valerio Scarani.

We were happy to be back at Science Centre Singapore sharing our science on 23 May! CQT Education Manager Alexander Hue and PhD students William Esteban Salazar, Dorian Arnold and Johnil Kim showcased our polarisation demo where visitors could see a myriad of colours, hidden words and cats 🐱

Save the dates! 📆 QIP 2027 will be held in Singapore 20 - 26 February. We're looking forward to it!

Home What is QIP 2027? QIP 2027 is the 30th edition of the yearly international scientific conference on the Quantum Information Processing. See the list of previous conferences here.

Welcome to Kavan Modi! Kavan joins CQT as a Principal Investigator. He is also a Professor at the SUTD Singapore University of Technology & Design.

His research is focused on understanding quantum stochastic processes. He says, "We can use this to understand noise in quantum systems and error correction, as well as the dynamics of natural systems or condensed matter systems."

Meet a CQTian: Kavan Modi - CQT - Centre for Quantum Technologies Kavan Modi joined CQT as a Principal Investigator in May. He is also a Professor at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD). Before joining SUTD, he was a Professor at Monash University in Australia. His research is focused on understanding quantum stochastic processes.

Celebrating Png Wen Han who successfully defended his thesis! 👏 Wen Han's thesis is on "Studies in Quantum Information and Quantum Control" and he was advised by Principal Investigator Valerio Scarani.

🌐 Their goal is to build quantum networks that span the globe, but the 100 researchers who gathered in Singapore on 27-29 April still find value in being in one room. We hosted these delegates for the fifth Workshop for Quantum Repeaters and Networks (WQRN5)!

The workshop featured seven sessions of invited talks and Q&A, with topics ranging from quantum repeaters and quantum network components to architectures and worldwide quantum network efforts. Attendees could also present posters, with over 50 put on display.

Participants of the workshop met some of Singapore’s wider research community through visits to labs at Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) and CQT labs at National University of Singapore.

Qubit Pharmaceuticals has announced a strategic research collaboration with CQT to develop and use novel quantum algorithms for molecular discovery.

The two-year collaboration combines Qubit Pharmaceuticalsʼ expertise in quantum chemistry and sampling techniques with CQTʼs deep capabilities in quantum computing, circuit design, and experimental implementation. The goal is to bring advanced quantum chemistry methods closer to real-world drug discovery applications.
