Professor Animesh Datta has been awarded funding through the EPSRC New Horizons initiative, working alongside Dr Tom Gur from the Department of Computer Science titled 'Property Testing for Quantum Engineering (ProTeQE). In addition to advancing the building of quantum computers, ProTeQE will nourish basic curiosity. Quantum mechanics, our present fundamental theory of Nature, is inherently probabilistic, and non-local. When these concepts interface with those of property testing and approximate decision-making, the outcomes could impact the foundations of our understanding of the laws of Nature. In particular, ProTeQE may eventually shed light on an abiding question: Are all fundamental laws of Nature (such as quantum mechanics) efficiently testable?

We are proud to announce our Athena SWAN Silver Award has been renewed for another five years. We would like to thank everyone who has helped with the progress we have made advancing gender equality in the department, with our Women in Physics group highlighted as an example of good practice.
