IQST at the Lindau Nobel Laureate Meeting
This week, the 73rd Lindau Nobel Laureate Meetings took place — with a focus on physics — bringing together 37 Nobel Laureates with almost 650 young scientists from all over the world. It was our distinct pleasure and privilege to actively contribute to the programme of this unique event.
On the final day, participants were taken by boat to the closing ceremony on the picturesque island of Mainau, famous for its flowers and park landscape. The event was hosted by the state of Baden-Württemberg, and during the boat trip the passengers had the opportunity to get to know the IQST. Shreya Kumar, a PhD student at the University of Stuttgart, gave a brief introduction and, together with postdoctoral researcher Vadim Vorobyov, welcomed guests to the IQST stand, where visitors could take a virtual tour of the lab and get a taste of what quantum research is like ‘from the inside’. Many people stopped by, including Nobel Laureate Klaus von Klitzing and numerous young scientists, with whom we had inspiring discussions.
Many thanks again to all the visitors and to the organisers of this event for giving us the opportunity to contribute.
