Non-invasive microvascular monitoring technologies based on diffuse optics

• Lorenzo Cortese (ICFO)

Room: 503/1-001 - Council Chamber Diffuse optics is a promising tool for the measurement of local tissue hemodynamics, enabling non-invasive quantitative assessment of oxy- and deoxy-hemoglobin concentrations and blood flow of the deep tissue (>1cm) at the microvascular level. In this talk, I will review the main diffuse optical technologies applied to health such as near-infrared diffuse optical spectroscopies and laser-speckle based techniques, with particular focus on intensive care clinical applications.

From circuits to sensors: the best is yet to come!

• Sara Pellegrini (STMicoelectronics)

Room: 503/1-001 - Council Chamber In my talk I will cover all aspects related to how an integrated Time-of-Flight sensor is designed and implemented. I will describe all aspects of pixel and sensors architecture in relation to addressing the needs of the application and all the important considerations that need to be made when going from simulation to real world implementation.

Quantum computing and its applications

• Daniel Egger

Room: 503/1-001 - Council Chamber This training consists of two parts. First, I will briefly present my career path, starting with my work on particle detectors, moving through financial risk management, and culminating in quantum computing at IBM. Second, we will explore how a quantum computer processes information using the laws of quantum mechanics. I will review the concepts of superposition, entanglement, and interference. Additionally, I will introduce the quantum circuit as a model for quantum computation. We will also discuss various applications of quantum computing and their potential relevance to particle detectors. Finally, we will learn how to execute quantum applications using the Qiskit quantum information software kit on the quantum processing units provided by IBM Quantum. D. Egger.

Quantum Sensing & Metrology: The next frontier

• Jan Theodoor Janssen (National Physical Laboratory, United Kingdom)

Room: 40/S2-D01 - Salle Dirac The invention of quantum mechanics is now nearly a century old, and you would have thought that most its applications would have been discovered. Nothing could be further from the truth. This field of research is more active than ever before with most of the attention going to quantum computing: a new form of computing based on the principles of quantum mechanics and is predicted to outperform any form of classical computing. Although the realisation of a useful quantum computer is still some years away, there are applications of quantum mechanics which are here and now and extremely exciting. Using delicate quantum effects, we can make sensors which allow us to measure signals beyond classical limits, opening up a whole new world for us to explore with huge potential impact for our prosperity and our quality of life. In the field of measurement science, metrology, quantum effects have resulted in superior measurement standards which have transformed the field. In this talk I will try to explain some of the weird and wonderful aspects of quantum mechanics and discuss a number of exciting sensing applications which result from it.
