Workshop on Error Resilience
in Quantum computing

📅 July 17-18, 2025 | 📍 New York University, NYC 🗽

Bringing together researchers, developers, and practitioners to advance error resilience in quantum computing.

About the Workshop

This workshop will bring together researchers, developers, and practitioners working on all aspects of Quantum Error Mitigation (QEM) and error resilient compilation — from those studying sampling costs to those implementing protocols in real-world quantum computing pipelines.

The goal is to foster collaboration between:

• Software developers building open source QEM tooling and integrations,
• Researchers exploring the feasibility and limitations of QEM,
• Practitioners applying QEM to improve near-term quantum hardware,
• Compiler developers working to enable seamless QEM integration.

By convening this diverse group, we aim to generate focused ideas on what to research and build next in QEM, especially in the context of early fault-tolerant quantum computing (eFTQC).
