Industry committee  I can say something. I think there's been some discussion about the DARPA program, and whether we should bring some kind of DARPA program to Canada. I participated in the DARPA SPiNS program years ago, so I'm somewhat familiar with the structure. I've also been a regular reviewer

Industry committee  I've sort of made this point during my speech, but the funding structure in Canada has evolved towards very large team grants, team grants like CREATE and like the CFI innovation fund.

It would also serve to help in terms of diversity and inclusion, because you could then r

Industry committee  I would sell that it's a privilege to have a job where you can think about things like deep mathematics and still do something that's useful for a possible application. This can appeal to people who vary from the small academic people who just want to play with stuff to people wh

Industry committee  I do want to say that in the area of recruiting students and exciting students about this field, it's just not that difficult. I must say that we have some advantage over some other fields in the fact that quantum mechanics is so intrinsically interesting that I find the spectrum

This suggestion was actually made by somebody last week, but I do think we need to develop a pan-Canada training program that involves collaboration among the institutions and collaboration with industry. I think CDL, th

Industry committee  It'll be hard to follow that. My name is Kimberly Hall. I've been a professor of physics at Dalhousie University for the past 18 years. Throughout my career, my research has focused on various areas of quantum technology, ranging from spin-based electronics to quantum spectrosco
