We are actively seeking an exceptional applicant (Australian domestic applicants only) for a PhD scholarship at Macquarie University, with Professor Peter Turner. Participate in an industry-engaged research project and undertake a six-month industry placement at Eigensystems.

We have a PhD opening for a motivated student with a Master’s Degree in Physics, Quantum Engineering, Quantum Information Science to join the **Quantum Information and Matter Group headed by Prof. Peter P. Orth at Saarland University, which offers a unique interdisciplinary research environment in quantum information science with groups in computer science, mathematics and physics. The successful applicant will conduct research at the interface of quantum information science and condensed matter theory. Specific research directions include quantum algorithms for the simulation of quantum materials and many-body systems. A focus lies on the implementation of these algorithms on current noisy intermediate-scale and near-term early fault-tolerant quantum hardware including the development and use of quantum error mitigation and quantum error correction methods.

The research group of Prof. Christoph Hirche at the University of Hannover (Germany) is looking for a motivated PhD student. The group is working on a variety of topics related to quantum information theory, Shannon theory and quantum computation.

This interdisciplinary project involves applying the quantum formalism (QF) to model experimental observations of human emotional memory performance, and the neural systems that support it, to better understand the interaction between elements. The quantum formalism provides a natural mechanism for modelling combinations of difficult-to-reconcile memory effects, such as the question order effect (where changing question order may change the respondent’s answer) and the response replicability effect (where repeated presentations of a question produce the same response across contexts). Conversely, the paradoxical temporal effects often observed in human memory performance mean it may provide a useful theatre for observing analogies of quantum phenomena we cannot access directly.
