To mark World Quantum Day on April 14, quantA – Quantum Science Austria proudly launches its new podcast series PARADOX. This podcast explores the fascinating foundations and latest developments in quantum physics – a field that is shaping both science and society in increasingly profound ways.
What is PARADOX?
PARADOX is a podcast about the strange and fundamental principles of the quantum world – from entanglement and superposition to quantum technologies. Inspired by the research themes of the FWF Cluster of Excellence quantA, host Moritz Brehm speaks with leading scientists about their work, their vision, and the role quantum science plays in our present and future.
Episode 1: Austria’s Quantum Landscape
The pilot episode features Gregor Weihs, Professor at the University of Innsbruck and Research Director of quantA. He offers insights into Austria’s unique position in the global quantum landscape and outlines current research priorities in the field.
