Event Description:

In this talk we'll be diving into the capabilities and benefits of quantum computing in modern day and the potential it has to shape our future world!

Few technologies have engendered as much breathless excitement and trenchant skepticism in recent years than quantum computing. Articles come out every other week claiming that a system has added more qubits or has broken some new record, and rumor has it that quantum technology will revolutionize AI, finance, chemistry, drug discovery, transportation, and almost everything else.

Target Audience:

Anyone interested in data science, quantum computing, machine learning and/or coding!

What You Will Gain:

• A basic understanding of what quantum computing is
• What applications QC can be used for
• How I can get started using a QC

How to Prepare:

About Your Instructors:

Mark Jackson

Dr. Mark Jackson is the Quantum Evangelist at Cambridge Quantum Computing. He received his B.S. in Physics and Mathematics from Duke University and Ph.D. in Theoretical Physics from Columbia University. He then spent 10 years researching superstring theory and cosmology, co-authoring almost 40 technical articles. To promote the public understanding of science, he founded the science crowdfunding platform Fiat Physica and non-profit Science Partnership Fund. In 2016 he graduated from the Metis data science bootcamp with a capstone project on topological data analysis. He is Adjunct Faculty at Singularity University and a Director of Astronomers Without Borders.

Trent Fowler

Trent Fowler is a data scientist and machine learning who got his start in these fields by attending the Galvanize Data Science Immersive bootcamp in 2018. Since then he has worked in fintech and agtech, he cohosts the popular Futurati Podcast, and he has recently taken a keen interest in the commercial applications of quantum computing.
