Online Seminar: Dr Sarah Kaiser, WA, USA
Q# and the Quantum Development Kit: Research and program quantum algorithms in the way you think about them.
Introduction to Q#: A quantum development language for everyone
SPEAKER: Dr Sarah Kaiser
AFFILIATION: Independent Researcher and Consultant, Seattle, Washington, USA
HOSTED BY: A/Prof Chris Ferrie, UTS Centre for Quantum Software and Information
ABSTRACT:
As the field of quantum computing expands from the academic to the industry realm, we need a way that we can continue to collaborate and innovate in both regimes. Open source quantum software development platforms like the Quantum Development Kit and Q# from Microsoft, serve as a bridge to connect research ideas to reality.
In this talk, I will give you a tour of what you can do with Q# and show you an example of how I am using it in my own research on qRAMs. After this talk, you will have the resources you need to dive into using Q# for your own research projects!
BIO:
Dr. Sarah Kaiser has spent much of her career developing new quantum hardware in the lab, from satellites to hacking quantum cryptography hardware. Communicating what is so exciting about quantum is her passion, and she loves building new demos and tools to help enable the quantum open source community to grow. Currently she works as a consultant and maintains quantum community groups like WIQCA and Q# Community. When not at the keyboard she loves kayaking, laser cutting everything (safe), and writing books about engineering for kids and adults alike.
