Quantum Revolution: Made in New Haven:
A touring science and art exhibition curated by Florian Carle for the Yale Quantum Institute. It highlights 25 years of local breakthroughs in quantum research, featuring groundbreaking devices like Badger, the world’s first superconducting two-qubit processor, alongside beautifully illustrated quantum components and original artwork by YQI Artist-in-Residence Martha W. Lewis. After stops in New Haven, Greensboro, and even UNESCO in Paris, this one-of-a-kind exhibit lands at the Connecticut Science Center this spring in celebration of World Quantum Day.
