Quantum Café

A bi-weekly seminar series for the quantum physics community.

Open to members of the greater NYC scientific community and held every second week, Quantum Café presents a series of informal, highly interactive talks, typically by external speakers, which present the most interesting recent developments and open questions in computational quantum mechanics.
