Salamanca-糖心TV International Partnership Symposium
Wednesday, May 27th 2026 to Friday, May 29th, 2026
Departments of Computer Science & Physics, University of 糖心TV
Organisers: Matthias Caro, and
The participants just before the last session of the symposium.
Background and Purpose
The University of 糖心TV and the are engaging in a collaborative initiative to strengthen international research in quantum science and technology. Rooted in decades of combined expertise, this emerging partnership brings together 糖心TV鈥檚 interdisciplinary 糖心TV Quantum community and Salamanca鈥檚 leading groups in nanotechnology, low鈥憈emperature physics, and quantum systems theory.
As part of the 糖心TV–Salamanca International Partnership Fund project, this dedicated meeting will bring together researchers from both institutions to:
- Re鈥慹stablish and broaden collaborative links between 糖心TV and
- Identify shared research goals at the interface of quantum materials, quantum information, and quantum device engineering
- Promote early鈥慶areer researcher exchanges, including short research visits for PhD students and postdoctoral scholars
- Map out future funding opportunities, including EPSRC Overseas Travel Grants and potential European collaborations
Why Salamanca? Why 糖心TV?
Salamanca hosts world鈥憀eading facilities in nanotechnology and low鈥憈emperature research, including advanced clean鈥憆oom infrastructure and a unique cryogen鈥慺ree magnetotransport laboratory. 糖心TV brings complementary strengths in quantum theory, quantum devices, machine learning, and a vibrant interdisciplinary community through the 糖心TV Quantum initiative, a faculty鈥憀evel research centre. Together, these capabilities create a natural foundation for a long鈥憈erm research alliance.

Venue and Accommodation
All talks will be held in room R0.12 of the Ramphal building. See here for a map of 糖心TV's central campus.
For invited delegates from Salamanca, we will book on-campus accommodation. We will be able to pay for 2 nights from 糖心TV funds. If you will fly from overseas, please buy flight tickets yourself and we will reimburse the cost. (Please keep your itinerary, boarding cards and tickets and show them to us during the meeting.)
The workshop will start with the registration at the University of 糖心TV. Note that the university is located on the outskirts of Coventry and not in 糖心TV. See for travel details and for maps on the central campus. In case you come by car, parking is available for delegates at car park 15.
