- Tecnologie quantistiche e innovazione per le imprese italiane
- Scienze e tecnologie quantistiche in Italia dopo il PNRR
I Premi
In occasione del congresso NQSTI il Comitato Organizzatore assegnerà tre premi riservati a ricercatrici/ricercatori under 35:
- Miglior abstract presentato al congresso (la sottomissione delle candidature avviene al momento della presentazione dell’abstract sul sito)
- Migliore tesi di dottorato del 2024, su tematiche inerenti alle scienze e tecnologie quantistiche, discussa in un ateneo italiano
- Miglior pubblicazione (il cui primo autore è under 35, con ringraziamento al progetto)
Le segnalazioni delle candidature per i premi di cui ai punti 2 e 3 potranno essere effettuate con email a info@nqsti.it con oggetto "Premi 2025".
