Teleportation is no longer just for science fiction. In quantum computing - it's real. Can one particle be in multiple places at the same time? In quantum physics - it's possible with superposition. Learn these weird wonders of quantum computing along with the bizarre phenomena of entanglement in our summer quantum computing camp. You'll also learn Qiskit, IBM's quantum coding language and even run code in a real quantum computer! This camp is like no other you've experienced.
Emily Van Milligen grew up in Northern California where she participated in Girl Scouts from 1st grade to 7th grade. After graduating from high school she attended college in Boston at Tufts University where she majored in Math and Physics. Now she lives in Tucson, where she spends her time exploring the desert and working towards her PhD in Physics at the University of Arizona. Her research group focuses on the quantum applications of light and she is focusing on laying the foundation for a future Quantum Internet. She is enthusiastic about playing soccer, painting, reading a good book, and sharing her passion for STEM with others.
