Stanford Launches New Q-Farm Initiative To Expand Strengths In Quantum Science & Engineering

Stanford and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory have launched a new Quantum Fundamentals, Architecture and Machines (Q-FARM) initiative to leverage and expand the university’s strengths in quantum science and engineering and to train the field’s next generation of scientists.

Q-FARM deputy director Patrick Hayden, a professor of physics in the School of Humanities and Sciences, said “I think it is very possible for Stanford to establish itself as the leading center in quantum science and engineering. We have advantages that other schools do not, including top-ranked science and engineering departments that are a short distance away from technology companies and SLAC, a renowned laboratory of the U.S. Department of Energy.”
