2024 Eddleman Quantum Institute graduate research fellowships announced

The Eddleman Quantum Institute (EQI) at the UC Irvine School of Physical Sciences has awarded eleven graduate research fellowships (GRF) for 2023-2024 academic year. The fellowships exist thanks to the generous support from philanthropist Roy Eddleman. The institute stimulates the discovery of new quantum science phenomena through interdisciplinary collaborations in a broad range of scientific endeavors and motivates future generations to study quantum science through education and outreach activities.
