Program

Programmet kommer att innehålla föreläsningar av inbjudna talare, som delar med sig av sina erfarenheter och kunskaper inom sina respektive ämnesområden inom kvantvetenskap och AI.  Varje tema avslutas med en frågestund med respektive forskare för varje tema där gymnasielever har chans att ställa frågor.

För gymnasieeleverna erbjuds dessutom workshops, guidade turer på campus och i labbmiljöer, samt middag och andra studentaktiviteter. Notera att programmet uppdateras.
