Please join us for the next talk in the FIU Quantum Initiatives Distinguished Lecture Series.

Dr. Rick Mukherjee will present "Qudit-Based Quantum Computing: A New Paradigm." He is the inaugural Director of the UTC Quantum Center and an Associate Professor of Physics at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. He'll introduce the center's research. Then he'll show how qudits, which are higher-dimensional versions of qubits, can solve hard optimization problems more efficiently than qubit-based methods.
