Student Travel Grant for Theory of Quantum Computing, Communication and Cryptography (TQC) 2019

第14届量子计算，通信和密码学理论会议（TQC 2019）将于2019年6月在马里兰州大学举行。这笔赠款资金支持14-16名符合条件的美国学生参加会议。接受者将能够参加主要会议、讲习班和海报会议。旅行赠款将鼓励未获得资助的学生和刚开始参与该领域或有兴趣进入该领域的学生的研究兴趣和参与，将特别努力接触妇女和代表性不足的少数民族，以及传统上没有代表参加TQC的机构。是一个领先的年度会议，为学生和研究人员在量子计算，量子信息和量子密码学的理论方面工作。该研讨会为参与者提供了一个很好的机会，让他们接触到特定的主题，并听取相关专家的意见。该研讨会将重点关注噪声中尺度量子信息（NISQ）。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。

The 14th Conference on the Theory of Quantum Computing, Communication and Cryptography (TQC 2019) will take place at the University of Maryland in June 2019. This grant funding supports the travel of 14-16 eligible US students to the conference. Recipients would be able to attend the main conference, workshops, and poster sessions. Travel grants will encourage the research interests and the involvement of students in the field who are not funded and those who are just beginning their participation in the field or are interested in entering it. A special effort will be made to reach out to women and under-represented minorities, and institutions not traditionally represented at TQC.The Theory of Quantum Computing, Communication and Cryptography (TQC), is a leading annual conference for students and researchers working in the theoretical aspects of quantum computing, quantum information and quantum cryptography. The workshop presents a great opportunity for participants to gain exposure to a particular topic and hear from the relevant experts in it. This workshop will focus on Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum Information (NISQ).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
