Chip-based phonon splitter brings hybrid quantum networks closer to reality: https://bit.ly/3KFOZUB The coupler acts like a junction in a #quantum postal route to split, route or recombine single quantum vibrations to send excitations made in one processor to others on the same chip. #OPG_OpticaQ💡⚛️

BREAKING: The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret, and John M. Martinis "for the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunnelling and energy quantisation in an electric circuit" Stay tuned for more.

It may not be shiny but there are several critical enabling technologies needed to make quantum networking happen ⚛️ phys.org/news/2025-10...

Oh Canada, don’t look this gift horse in the mouth. Highly skilled people have just been priced out of the US. Come north where the only taxes on your brain are the worlds most important scientific questions that you’ll help to answer.

🇨🇦 Department of Defence' Quantum Strategy Implementation Plan is well underway!

Join the community science project “Flu Watchers” (🇨🇦 wide). public.cnphi-rcrsp.ca/fluWatcher/r... Help track common viruses like flu, RSV, & COVID-19. Each week you get an email asking if you’ve had a cough or fever. It takes 20 seconds, max.

Another year, dragged into an NFL fantasy football league, another year ready to dominate with as little effort as possible

As teams grow, new Ph.D. graduates are less likely to land tenure-track jobs and more likely to leave science—especially women and international researchers, according to research from last year. https://scim.ag/3JHinJs #ScienceMagArchives

I have no idea why I think this is strange, but walking around Waterloo (the city I spent 7 years of my life researching quantum, and left 7 years ago) and overhearing other people talk about quantum feels bewildering

Raymond Laflamme 1960-2025. A great scientist, renowned for his pioneering contributions to quantum error correction. A great leader, founding director of the Institute for Quantum Computing. A great colleague and teacher whose legacy continues to inspire us. uwaterloo.ca/institute-fo...

I got a wack more awesome quantum stickers but they were too big for this frame. Do I need to start another one?

RIP Ray Laflamme, gone too soon. Ray was a stellar scientist, the founding director of ⁦‪the IQC‬⁩ and ⁦‪of CIFAR's‬⁩ Quantum Information program, but more importantly a warm & generous human who built community and helped many (particularly junior researchers). May his memory be a blessing.

In Montreal at #QUANTUMNOW this week and looking forward to reconnecting with Canada's top quantum companies and other leaders. Wanna chat quantum networking and entanglement-enabled future quantum tech? My collaboration program is here to collaborate!

Quantum in the G7 spotlight! www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/stat...

Let's go quantum! 🇨🇦 thequantuminsider.com/2025/06/08/c...

This is how I keep quantum-ing hard over the long Canadian winters, training for an annual half marathon with 11,000 of my friends! #RunOttawa2025

At Photonics North for the week! Check out my talk later today on NRC's collaborative challenge programs and tomorrow for our dynamite #quantum industry panel!

It's #worldmetrologyday! 150 years ago today, a group of nations signed a treaty called The Metre Convention. It established the framework for the first global, unified measurement system & changed the world.

Aujourd'hui, je suis ravie de participer à Lumière, une conférence québécoise sur l'optique et la photonique qui se tient à Montréal. 💡 Parlez-moi de réseautage quantique et de collaboration avec le Conseil national de recherches 🇨🇦 dans mon nouveau programme ! ⚛️

The National Research Council's 🇨🇦 attosecond heritage (Paul Corkum) now pushes into the quantum domain: Congrats Giulio and the team! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Oh my, I'll need to check out Amal El-Mohtar's latest book! I loved This Is How You Lose the Time War! 🔵📖

Canadians, it's gonna be extra important to hydrate tomorrow as we randomly burst into tears or find ourselves breaking out into cold sweats, so please take the opportunity to wash your emotional support water bottle TODAY in preparation.

Lot of great science writing tips below 👇

Congrats Fred! He has done amazing work within our quantum challenge programs, here at the National Research Council of Canada 💡⚛️

Pavel is one of the National Research Council's 🇨🇦 researchers who works in our Quantum Sensors Challenge Program Congrats Pavel!

Today marks the end of the Arc of Chocolate (Oct-Apri), and the beginning of the Crescent of Ice Cream (May-Sept).

“While it is desirable to ensure that scientific experts are ‘at the centre of policymaking’ it is imperative that we are clear about what this means, who has the authority to make decisions, and pay attention to the implications of different designs of the science-policy interface.”

Highlighting a book a day for #BlackHistoryMonth. For 2/21 - @chanda.bsky.social's "Disordered Cosmos" - a brilliant book, seeking truths about science and the world, unwilling to hide from reality. Physics, cosmology, and academia can't be great until they become part of a liberatory future.
