Externally Funded Projects

The center for IQST comprises some of the world’s leading experts in a wide variety of disciplines, including quantum physics, materials science, atomic engineering, chemical and biochemical synthesis, and medicine. IQST Fellows have received an ERC Synergy Grant, seven ERC individual-investigator grants, five Leibniz prizes, and two Humboldt professorships in quantum science. Furthermore, they lead numerous EU quantum projects and the EU quantum Flagship Initiative.
