Summary

The PRESTO programs "Quantum Cooperation" and "Quantum Materials" supported by JST, are pleased to announce an international workshop jointly organized with researchers from the German Cluster of Excellence  ctd.qmat. This three-day intensive workshop aims to bring together experts, early-career researchers, and students from diverse fields related to Correlated and Topological Quantum Materials, providing a focused forum to explore cutting-edge topics and recent advances in this rapidly evolving area of research.

 

About the Workshop

 

The workshop aims to strengthen ties with our colleagues in Germany by fostering the exchange of ideas and expertise, while contributing to broader international research activities in quantum science through the PRESTO programs.

 

Highlights

 

  • Interdisciplinary Exchange: The PRESTO programs promote dialogue and collaboration among researchers from different PRESTO fields and scientists from abroad, supporting a comprehensive and interdisciplinary understanding of quantum materials.

     

  • Frontier Research: The workshop will feature presentations and discussions on recent advances in quantum materials research, with invited talks by promising early-career researchers affiliated with the PRESTO programs and the German Cluster of Excellence ctd.qmat. Active participation from early-career researchers and graduate students is encouraged.

     

  • Networking Opportunities: The workshop provides an environment conducive to networking, enabling participants at all career stages to establish valuable connections that may lead to future collaborations.
