Nice, 8-10 February 2017

The school will consist on a series of courses that aim to revise the fundamentals of quantum information, including cryptography, relating them to specific implementations in photonics with emphasis on the added value of reconfigurable devices. The Courses will also discuss the interfaces between different devices.

Abstract submission is already possible at: picque-nice-17.sciencesconf.org
The participation to the PICQUE Scientific school is free. However, the registration is mandatory at https://picque-nice-17.sciencesconf.org/registration/index
Travel and accommodation will not be provided.
