Seeking Essential Resources for Learning Quantum Error Correction
At QEC all week, thinking about the students who aren't here yet. If you came up through quantum error correction recently — what lectures, notes, or papers actually got you from zero to reading talks like these? I'll compile and share back.

Hands‑On Workshop Turns Chip Layouts Into Superconducting Qubits
How do you actually go from a chip layout to a working superconducting qubit? That's the whole point of the Quantum Device Workshop — back at UCLA, June 15–18. Four days, fully hands-on. I'll be teaching. 🚀 https://t.co/iwY1E43ekH
Linking Chip Layout to Hamiltonian Enables Usable Qubits
Designing useable superconducting qubits involves bridging the gap between the physical chip layout and the Hamiltonian that governs its physical behavior.
Register by May 31 for UCLA Quantum Workshop
Last chance to register for the 2026 Quantum Device Design Workshop at UCLA: https://t.co/cLUroSiRku The deadline to register is May 31.
Braiding Fibonacci Anyons Enables Universal Quantum Gates
How can we build universal quantum gates by braiding exotic particles that don't exist in free space? Fibonacci anyons are quasiparticle excitations of topologically ordered quantum states whose braiding statistics are rich enough to perform universal quantum computation.
From LC Oscillator to Transmon: Building Superconducting Qubits
How do you actually make a qubit from a superconducting circuit? Superconducting qubits are one of the leading platforms for quantum computing, but the path from an LC oscillator to a functioning transmon qubit involves some complex (and fascinating) physics.
Disorder Stops Quantum Systems From Reaching Thermal Equilibrium
What happens when we introduce disorder to a many-body system? In classical physics, we're taught that systems eventually reach thermal equilibrium. However, in quantum mechanics, disorder can prevent equilibrium through a phenomenon known as many-body localization.
Register Now for UCLA Quantum Device Design Workshop
Friendly reminder to register (if you have not already) for the upcoming Quantum Device Design Workshop at UCLA June 15–18.
Google Invites Proposals for Early Willow Quantum Access
@GoogleQuantumAI is currently accepting proposals for early access to the Willow quantum processor. This hardware is not yet publicly available, so this a notable opportunity for research groups looking to run experiments on state-of-the-art superconducting quantum hardware.

QuEPP: Quantum‑Enhanced Pauli Propagation Boosts Error Mitigation
Another highlight from last week, Swarnadeep Majumdar presenting work on QuEPP (Quantum Enhanced Pauli Propagation), our new take on the classical-quantum combination for error mitigation: https://t.co/v7o45niZV8 https://t.co/gb52BzVOUS
Google PhD Fellowship Now Accepting Quantum Computing Applicants

Google Announces Dual Quantum Computing Platforms
Big news of the day, at Google we are building both superconducting and neutral atom quantum computers. https://t.co/Q8fbzebAyu #quantum #atom #google

Quantum Processor Yields 2.44 Å Distance via ZNE
Sharing a snapshot from my second talk at #APSSummit26 — this one on NMR OTOCs and Pauli‑path approaches to zero‑noise extrapolation (ZNE) to learn an inter-atomic distance of 2.44 +- 0.04 angstroms on a Google's Willow quantum processor. https://t.co/350lCfheQM

Machine Learning Advances Practical Quantum Error Mitigation
Thank you to everyone who packed the room this morning at #APSSummit26 for my 30 min talk on our machine learning for practical quantum error mitigation (Nature Machine Intelligence) work. https://t.co/na3tJ45loA

Invited Talk on Error Mitigation at APSSummit
Join me tomorrow (Monday, 9 AM) at #APSSummit for the session “Advances in Error Mitigation and Noise Reduction,” where I’ll be giving an invited talk. https://t.co/WYeF6sOiCy
