The AIMLAC Doctoral Training Centre hosted an enriching training week from January 23rd to 25th in Bristol. It brought together doctoral students from Bangor, Aberystwyth, Cardiff, Swansea, and Bristol eager to delve into the world of quantum computing and enhance their technical skills. AIMLAC is funded by UKRI Research and Innovation.

The training week commenced with a deep dive into the basics of quantum computing, offering students a comprehensive understanding of this innovative field. The students are also engaged in a coding challenge, and the Bristol event provided them with the opportunity to catch up with their current coding solutions. This challenge not only tests their skills but also allowed them to apply theoretical concepts that they have been learning in their training. In addition to quantum computing, the AIMAC training week included training in Docker and SQL, equipping them with practical skills essential for modern research and development. 

Participants were privileged to have a session by Professor Jonathan Roberts on Information Visualization where they delved into the art and science of representing complex data in visually comprehensible ways. And another session by Annabel Jenkins on “connecting with the audience and getting your message across live or online”. They received guidance on connecting with their audience and effectively conveying their messages in both live and online settings. This skill set is particularly crucial in the ever-evolving landscape of academic and professional presentations.

Mr Glory Ogbonda, a PhD student at �鶹��ýӳ�� funded by AIMLAC, said “Overall, the AIMAC Doctoral Training Centre Week in Bristol proved to be a wonderful experience. It blended quantum computing insights, coding challenges, with technical skill development. In addition, I really enjoyed meeting with students who are studying different PhD topics and learning about their experiences.”
