IQST Gradu­ate School @QuantumBW: Two-Day Train­ing Activities

The IQST Gradu­ate School @QuantumBW is excited to host a two-day train­ing program on Decem­ber 2–3, 2025, designed to support the scientific and profes­sional devel­op­ment of its young research­ers. These activ­it­ies are organ­ized by the Gradu­ate School and are open not only to PhD students of the program, but also to all students and early career research­ers across the IQST community, foster­ing exchange, skill-building, and hands-on experience.

Scientific Present­a­tions: How to Optim­ize Posters and Talks (Decem­ber 2)

On the first day, parti­cipants will take part in a full-day workshop led by Prof. Dr. Matt Carter (Willi­ams College, US), focus­ing on practical tools and exercises to help commu­nic­ate research clearly, confid­ently, and effect­ively to diverse audiences. This inter­act­ive session is designed to strengthen present­a­tion and poster skills for scientific contexts.

Visit to Swabian Instru­ments GmbH (Decem­ber 3)

The second day offers a visit to Swabian Instru­ments in Stutt­gart, includ­ing a company intro­duc­tion, a tour of the facil­it­ies, and a hands-on session with the Time Tagger API. This provides parti­cipants with an oppor­tun­ity to engage directly with cutting-edge quantum instru­ment­a­tion and its applications.

Across these two days, parti­cipants will strengthen their scientific commu­nic­a­tion skills, explore cutting-edge quantum techno­logy, and connect with peers from across the IQST community, build­ing networks and exchan­ging ideas that will enrich their research and profes­sional development.
