National Quantum Virtual Laboratory

The National Science Foundation announced five new teams in its National Quantum Virtual Laboratory design competition. The laboratory will provide researchers with access to specialized resources for developing useful quantum technologies. Each of the five teams will receive $4 million over two years to refine their development plans and prepare for the implementation phase. They join four teams that were selected last year.

This year’s teams include:

  • Accelerating Fault-Tolerant Quantum Logic, led by UCLA.

  • Attosecond Synchronized Photonic Entanglement Network, led by University of Oregon.

  • Distributed-Entanglement Quantum Sensing of Chemical Properties, led by Ohio State.

  • Erasure Qubits and Dynamic Circuits for Quantum Advantage, led by Yale.

  • Quantum Photonic Integration and Deployment, led by University of Michigan.

Quantum-accelerated computing

IEEE Quantum Week 2026 bridges the gap between the science of quantum computing and the development of the industry surrounding it – the breakthrough physics and the engineering of large, reliable systems. Expect more than 1,750 colleagues, world-class keynote speakers, hundreds of technical papers, and dozens of panels and talks 13-18 September.

Early-bird registration is closing soon. Be sure to register today.

Then check out a discussion of NVIDIA’s quantum-accelerated computing strategy with Sam Stanwyck from the 2025 conference.
