Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — In a world first, a research team led by the University of Oxford’s Department of Engineering Science has shown it is possible to engineer a quantum mechanical process inside proteins, opening the door to a new class of quantum-enabled biological technologies. The study, published today (21 January)
Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) has established the KAUST Quantum Foundry, a program designed to strengthen Saudi Arabia’s ability to fabricate commercial and reproducible quantum hardware. By enabling structured, shared access to KAUST quantum cleanrooms, the Foundry supports device prototyping and process development, allowing industry
Insider Brief Researchers at MIT and MIT Lincoln Laboratory have demonstrated a faster and more energy-efficient method for cooling trapped ions in chip-based quantum systems, according to MIT News. Quantum computers could solve complex problems more quickly than classical supercomputers, but they require systems that are large and stable enough
Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — Alice & Bob, a global leader in fault-tolerant quantum computing, today announced a new way to reduce bit flip errors by “moving” logical ancilla qubits up and down during computation to gain significant performance improvement on the company’s future cat qubit quantum computers. These new
Insider Brief PRESS RELEASE — Across a dozen European countries, a new European pilot will be started in 2026: Photonics for Quantum (P4Q). In this project, a large consortium is working on ways to make photonic chips for quantum applications more reliable and scalable. The coordinator of P4Q, Pepijn Pinkse
