I was invited (with my boss and another colleague) to the International Quantum Academy in Shenzhen to give a talk after I edited Single-Electron Spin Qubits in Silicon for Quantum Computing, a paper written by some researchers who are based there.
See below for photos of my visit to the International Quantum Academy.
My talk
The talk I gave was about a few common English mistakes I’ve seen in papers submitted to Intelligent Computing, journal policies related to the use of AI writing tools, and how to handle image permissions.
A bulletin board with posters on the right for my talk (and my boss’s talk)!Me introducing myself.Me introducing two special issues of the journal Intelligent Computing.
My team and our hosts
My boss (Qing Zhang), me, and our host (Yu He).My colleague (Sheng Jiang), me, my boss (Qing Zhang), and our hosts (Yu He and Peihao Huang).
A souvenir!
My two colleagues and I each received a gift in a box like this:
Here’s a Google Translation of some of the text on the other side of this box: “The white cat is energetic, innovative, and always full of energy and enthusiasm; the black cat is mysterious, reserved, pragmatic, and rigorous, and likes to think about and study scientific problems; although the two kittens have completely different personalities, they complement each other and work together seamlessly, just like the two particles in the quantum entanglement phenomenon, which can sense and interact with each other even if they are thousands of miles apart.”
Only one of these two cat mascots is inside the box, but you don’t know until you open the box whether the cat will be black or white!
I got the white one. This thing is apparently a phone stand. I maybe don’t need a phone stand, but I love the two cat mascots, and I love the logo.Here’s the logo!
