The Quantum Universe Research School (QURS, see our website here) forms the structured career support program for doctoral students, postdocs and young group leaders within the key research area CHAMPP (Center in Hamburg for Astro-, Mathematical and Particle Physics). It is a cooperation of Universität Hamburg (MIN Faculty, Departments of Mathematics and Physics) and DESY (in particular the high-energy physics division).
For the first time the QURS graduate week "QURS Days" will be organized in February 2024 by the Early Career Council and the QURS management.
Within the first three days introductory and advanced lecture courses will be held in each QU area: Gravitational Waves, Dark Matter, Higgs physics, and Quantum Theories. Additionally, five key skills courses will be offered on the topics leadership, time management, High Performance Computing, Quantum computing, and Markov chain Monte Carlo methods.
On Wednesday 7 February 2024, a moderated industry panel will take place with four former physicists from Universität Hamburg.
On Thursday, 8 February 2024, a modified QU Day will take place, including a poster session by QURS members. All PhD students are welcome to present their current research in this format. Besides, we will have a few highlight talks, news and announcements and the presentation of the Best Paper Awards.
