At Aarhus University’s Annual Celebration on 11 September, Anne L’Huillier and Karen River Barad will be appointed honorary doctors. Their academic careers represent two very different perspectives on the quantum field – from experimental attosecond physics to interdisciplinary work spanning physics and philosophy.

Two interdisciplinary teams have been selected for the first QCA Incubator. The projects bring together expertise across mathematics, computer science, engineering, and physics to explore new approaches to quantum challenges. Both teams will now enter a one-year process supported by Quantum Campus Aarhus.

On 30 September 2026, Professor Ove Christiansen will take high school students on a journey into quantum chemistry, explaining how quantum computers could transform the way we model molecules and develop new materials, medicines, and sustainable technologies. The livestream is part of Aarhus University's national lecture series for upper secondary schools.

Quantum Campus Aarhus (QCA) is launching QCA Incubator — a new initiative designed to support promising interdisciplinary quantum ideas and help turn them into structured, visible, and output-oriented collaborations. Applications are now open until 17 August 2026.

QCA leadership member Nick Volet is part of the organising team behind ICFUST 2026 (International Conference on Far-UVC Science and Technology), hosted at Aarhus University 23–25 June 2026. The conference connects research and real-world applications of Far-UVC. Read more on the event page.
