@AzizaS I make YouTube videos teaching QC/QIS to a general audience if that counts - happy to talk more :) https://t.co/2YFBRPwQ7j

My home-country Bangladesh is experiencing one crisis after another: first a mass uprising that overthrew the govt, now the worst flood in 30+ years. It's why there hasn't been a new @QuantumNewsMtly video lately. Please consider donating🙏(tax-deductible) https://t.co/ISIhZGvgfy

PsiQuantum promised to build the world's first useful quantum computer, so we took a closer look at their technology! In this video we discuss everything from the basics of photonic quantum computing to their success and challenges covered in @PsiQuantum's recent preprint. (1/4)

@chaoyanglu @letonyo @BartlettQuantum Naive question but what is Klyshko efficiency and what would be a good (or necessary) number for FTQC?

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

Spotted around lab. Sounds about right 🥲

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

This was a really fun video to make! @MingyuKang4 and I learned about lattice problems to explain post-quantum cryptography and #eprint555. Appreciate @Heum who reached out and offered to explain this hard topic - it's great to be part of the #quantum science community 😄

[Quantum News Monthly @QuantumNewsMtly]

A preprint dropped couple weeks ago *almost* broke Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) and got everyone in the quantum & crypto communities excited! In this video, let's see what this is all about, with an awesome interview w/ PQC expert Dr. @Heum! (1/5)

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

@Heum Enjoyed chatting and learning from you 😊

[Mingyu Kang @MingyuKang4]

Super excited to have this Review published! It was a great collaboration (a.k.a. never-ending discussions) between quantum physicists and quantum chemists! Check out this thread if you're interested in quantum advantage, chemical dynamics, or trapped ions. (1/n)

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

What a roller coaster ride this has been for the #quantum community! We're still planning to cover the story in our next @quantumnewsmtly video, so stay tuned for a special episode featuring a #cryptography researcher :)

[Boaz Barak @boazbaraktcs]

Chen’s paper has a bug, independently discovered by Hongxun Weng and Thomas Vidick, that he doesn’t know how to fix. If I understand correctly, in its current form the paper doesn’t yield any improvement on prior algorithms.

[Quantum News Monthly @QuantumNewsMtly]

We really want to cover this paper on quantum algo for lattice problems: https://t.co/OJIKj0t7n4 But we need an expert's input cuz tbh we have no idea what's going on. Could anyone plz share a rough sketch of the algorithm? If you're willing to come on camera, plz get in touch!

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

@PsirchQ With due respect, your definition of hype is somewhat contrived, so I disagree with your conclusion. I also echo my partner @MingyuKang4's sentiment that @DulwichQuantum is a much needed voice in this community (and as educators I hope we can be too). So let's agree to disagree.

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

Can #QuantumComputing someday revolutionize drug design and find the cure for cancer? Many people might have you convinced that QCs are all powerful. But turns out, there's more than one catch here. Watch our video, based on work by @jafanello et al, to learn the full picture.

[Quantum News Monthly @QuantumNewsMtly]

Have you ever heard that quantum computers will help finding new drugs? Is this true or hyped? In this video we cover the perspective paper in @NaturePhysics by @jafanello @A_Aspuru_Guzik & coauthors on how much we know about using quantum computers for drug design. (1/4)

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

@SoyanshN @MingyuKang4 @QuantinuumQC @quantumnewsmtly Hi Soyansh, I believe you left a comment on YouTube as well. You can DM me your questions, will try to answer.

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

I'm so excited to share this one! @MingyuKang4 and I explained how @QuantinuumQC demonstrated non-Abelian topological order and braiding using an #iontrap #quantumcomputer.
Follow @quantumnewsmtly to stay in touch with the latest quantum information research!

[Quantum News Monthly @QuantumNewsMtly]

A new topologically ordered state of matter is created on a trapped-ion quantum computer. What does this mean? In this video we explain whether @QuantinuumQC @nat_tanti & coauthors indeed created something new, with some help from @carlorovelli's "rocket vs drawing" analogy (1/4)

@DriptoDebroy I've been using iPad+OneDrive for a few years and it works GREAT for reading and annotating papers! You can annotate PDFs in the OneDrive app in iPad, and it syncs to desktop and web. I really like that I can access the notes across Windows and Android devices too this way.

[Mike Simonsen 🐉 @mikesimonsen]

This is incredible.

From @Jamie_Lane where AirBnBs are fully booked next week.

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

The qLDPC code paper from @IBMResearch for #quantum error correction is on the cover of @Nature today. Fun fact: @MingyuKang4 covered this paper in our very first @quantumnewsmtly video in Sep '23 when it was on arxiv! Feel free to give our explainer a watch :)

[Quantum News Monthly @QuantumNewsMtly]

The paper on high-threshold qLDPC code by @IBM @IBMResearch is now published in @Nature as cover story! Riding on this bandwagon, here's the segment of our very first video (Sep. 2023) covering this paper when it was freshly out on @arxiv. (1/3)
Stay tuned for this month's video!

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

@quantumnewsmtly @IBM @IBMResearch @Nature @arxiv Wow it seems like ages ago! But even then we had a good eye for groundbreaking research😉

[Debopriyo Biswas @debobiswas4]

I was invited to this podcast to talk about movies and #QuantumComputing, my two loves. Check it out!
Thanks to Miranda Volborth for the opportunity and Andrew for being an awesome co-guest.

Using @elonmusk to explain fault tolerant #QuantumComputing like

[Quantum News Monthly @QuantumNewsMtly]

How many qubits would a fault-tolerant (FT) quantum computer need? And how many gates would be added to run a circuit FTly? The 2nd part of our Feb. 2024 episode covers @HayataYamasaki and Koashi's breakthrough FT code architecture that is efficient in both space and time. (2/4)
