Queen's 2015 Nobel Prize in PhysicsA new training program for highly qualified students and postdoctoral fellows will be developed in our Department following successful funding from the federal government’s Collaborative Research and Training Experience (CREATE) program. The program, entitled NUCLEUS (Network for Ultrafast Computing with Light on Emerging Unconventional Semiconductors), includes experts across six universities, numerous industry partners, and global academic entities. Co-led by Bhavin Shastri (Physics, Engineering Physics, and Astronomy) and Joyce Poon (University of Toronto), the program aims to pioneer Canada’s first formal training program in photonics, bridging AI and quantum computing.
