Tasks

T4.1 Organization and support of International Conferences and Meetings

The aim of this task is to coordinate and support cross-disciplinary scientific meetings for the QIPC community in Europe. In particular it will continue the highly successful series of conferences that were organized by the predecessor program QUROPE, and therefore assure a continuous coverage of major QIPC events in Europe every two years.

Objectives

The aim of this work package is to bring together excellent scientists at all stages of their careers to advance the frontiers of research. This will be achieved specifically via

  • The coordination and organization of scientific meetings;
  • Providing stimulation for scientific exchange across sub-fields, generations and disciplines;
  • Providing incentives for young researchers.
