Leiden Plan your route to Tuesday Talk: Can games unlock the quantum future?
This edition of Tuesday Talk, Dr. Nieuwenburg explores the convergence of quantum physics, artificial intelligence, and games. By investigating how AI interacts with quantum systems in these digital testing grounds, researchers are increasingly gaining insight into the quantum world.
The Tuesday Talks are Leiden’s monthly dose of research inspiration, open to all curious minds. Every second Tuesday of the month, Leiden University hosts a one-hour lecture by a staff member. The speaker, Dr. Evert van Nieuwenburg, is a computational physicist who investigates the interaction between machine learning and quantum physics.
As founder of QuantumPlayed, Dr. van Nieuwenburg aims to bridge the gap between quantum science and society by making complex topics accessible. Moreover, games provide a framework for AI to explore and adapt to complex quantum principles. Researchers thus evaluate subtle phenomena and discover trends, which advance our understanding of unusual states of matter and help tackle some of the most fundamental challenges in physics.
Don’t miss this opportunity to learn about the intersection of quantum physics, artificial intelligence, and games. Join for an inspiring discussion and connect with fellow science enthusiasts over drinks afterwards!
