The Quantum Experience | National Science Week

Have you ever been curious about “Quantum”? This is the event for you. 

The Quantum Experience is your unique opportunity to find out what “quantum” is all about, and why it seems to be everywhere at the moment. 

Our very own Dr Lachlan Rogers will lead an immersive and interactive journey into the captivating world of quantum science.  

This year is the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ), with the aim of “increasing public awareness of the importance of quantum science and applications”.  

AND this event is part of National Science Week, this year’s theme of “Decoding the Universe – Exploring the unknown with nature’s hidden language” perfectly aligning with IYQ! 

There will be a presentation, Q&A opportunities, hands-on activities, stalls, demos, and more!
