"I am proud that our new Circular Plastics group published its first completely in-house research," Kim Ragaert says. She founded the research group three years ago, when she moved to Maastricht. Her work has laid the foundations for many innovations in the field of plastic recycling, and she is currently developing a research facility that will bring the plastic recycling world together. All in all, it is the perfect moment for her inaugural speech on July 4th.

Programming quantum computers, like the quantum computer itself, is still in its early stages. Quantum computing researchers tend to be physicists, mathematicians, or computer scientists who have a special interest in the mathematical framework of quantum mechanics.
This online workshop is conducted within the framework of the international research project "Facilitating mutual recognition: Analytics and Capacity building Information Legal eXplainable tool to strengthen cooperation in the criminal matter - FACILEX) of the Justice Program of the European Union (JUST-2022-JCOO).

Atoms and smaller elementary particles behave in unusual, sometimes unpredictable ways. It sounds strange, but it is this unpredictability that gives a quantum computer its power. Executing precise calculations with previously unheard-of possibilities in a way that physicists still do not completely comprehend: welcome to the world of the quantum computer.
