Quayside moments

A collage of 15 images showcasing women in various STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields. The images depict women conducting laboratory experiments, giving presentations, working outdoors in nature, engaging in field research, operating drones, beekeeping, diving for marine studies, and participating in conferences. The settings range from laboratories and lecture halls to outdoor environments, highlighting the diversity of scientific careers.

This International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we’re celebrating the incredible women in our community! From research labs to to the field, they’re shaping the future and paving the way for more to follow 🔬✨ #WomenInScience #WomenInSTEM #WeAreNCL

It’s been a pleasure to give my first conference talk at SAgE PGR Conference 2025, organised by Newcastle University. Shoutout to all the presenters for great talks and best of luck with the projects 🙌

Lithuania: Incoming culture minister defends Russian culture Lithuania should not censor everything related to Russian culture, the country’s incoming culture minister, Sarunas Birutis, stated, LRT reports. Speaking in an interview with ELTA…

#Lithuania should not "stigmatise" Russian #culture, incoming culture minister Sarunas Birutis stated. He insisted that the "Russian nation was not the same as the Kremlin," while stressing that #Russians had been neighbours to #Lithuanians "for millennia" and would continue to be so.

Quantum Computers Cross Critical Error Threshold | Quanta Magazine In a first, researchers have shown that adding more “qubits” to a quantum computer can make it more resilient. It’s an essential step on the long road to practical applications.

I was thrilled to hear about the surface code when Alexei Kitaev visited @caltech.edu in April 1997. It's heartening to see the hardware catching up with the theory of quantum error correction. There's still far to go but this is encouraging progress.

Unveiling Order in Apparent Quantum Randomness

#Quantum physics isn’t as random as once thought. Recent discoveries show a surprising degree of predictability and control. By refining our understanding of measurement, we’ve even learned to reverse quantum jumps.
