Cheers to the first graduating class of the LANL Quantum Computing Summer School. Very fun and productive summer with many algorithms and friendships developed. Can easily see this as one of the best places to be for quantum algorithms.

The Quantum Motor City summer camp for high school students returns, this time supported by NSF! For contacts around Michigan/the midwest, please share with a student, parent, teacher, or school district who may be interested: etap.nsf.gov/award/8486/opp…

Looking forward to speaking at ML Methods for Complex and Quantum Systems in Barcelona this June, please consider submitting an abstract by March 20!

Today's QuIC Seminar by Greg Quiroz, doing awesome work in error characterization, control, and suppression. Our first external speaker visiting MSU-Q in person, with more to come!

Let's just do the 100th anniversary of quantum again? Schrodinger 1926: Wave mechanics Schrodinger 1926: Wave mechanics = matrix mechanics = quantum mechanics

Undergraduates looking for research opportunities can now apply to ACRES at MSU: etap.nsf.gov/award/6370/opp… I'm looking forward to supervising a talented student in new algorithms and HPC strategies for simulating noisy, large-scale quantum circuits!

From the great mind of Dean Lee and collaborators, we introduce resolution refinement for initial state preparation of quantum many-body systems on quantum computers: arxiv.org/abs/2511.14732

I think it's really awesome and in the spirit of open science for IBM to host events like the Quantum Developer Conference and provide access to state-of-the-art quantum hardware: thank you @IBM on behalf of the community!

I finished typing my lecture notes for Trotter evolution from the ECT TALENT school this summer, aimed at beginners and covering - A simple algebraic proof of first-order Trotter - Implementation in quantum circuits - A coding exercise

Now in PRA, working to squeeze the most out of quantum computers with the fewest resources, utilizing fine-grained commutativity properties in what we call k-commutativity: journals.aps.org/pra/abstract/1… (And still open access on arXiv: arxiv.org/abs/2312.11840)

Our group is looking to hire postdocs to work at the intersection of quantum computing, quantum algorithms, quantum machine learning, simulation of many-body quantum systems and early-fault tolerant quantum computing Apply here: lanl.jobs/search/jobdeta… Re tweets appreciated!

This works via a new circuit to implement convex combinations of channels, which we expect to have applications in other areas Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2510.10905

Short new paper on a topic we've been thinking about, especially as we start to see computers with a few logical qubits: How do error mitigation & correction fit together? With my PhD student Ben, we show how access to logical qubits can arbitrarily reduce the negativity of PEC

Smooth campaign! Thank you @qbraid_official, we will put both the chalk and the compute time to good use!

MSU students/faculty can join us every week for pizza, pop, and QIS, and anyone can join for virtual talks - see more info and sign up to our mailing list at sites.google.com/msu.edu/quic-s…

Celebrating seven years of the QuIC Seminar @msuqis by kicking off the eighth! Now a course with over 20 undergrads + grads enrolled and a great lineup of speakers, we're starting off with an introduction to QIS by my very own PhD student Jean Paul

Thanks to our project partners @JavaFXpert & Brian I & @BradleyHolt / @IBM Quantum, @nick_farina / @QCHardware, Megan Schrauben / @MichiganLEO, LaShawn Sims / Detroit Public Schools, and MSU colleagues @unhappyfinn and @yadavaman! For more: ryanlarose.com/quantum-motor-…

Thanks to @NSF for supporting Quantum Motor City! With government, industry, & education partners, we will create a pathway for high school students from Detroit/Michigan to strengthen the quantum workforce, and share our camp as a model for others to implement

For Detroit/Michigan contacts, we're now accepting applications for the 2025 Quantum Motor City summer camp July 9 - 11 at Michigan State University - please share with any interested high schools / students / districts! ryanlarose.com/quantum-motor-…

Really excited to engage in the friendly Phase 3 competition to run large-scale quantum algorithms on hardware, pushing the limits of what is possible in biology and health with quantum technology
