This initiative brings together researchers from the RIKEN Interdisciplinary Theoretical and Mathematical Sciences Program (iTHEMS), the University of California, Berkeley, and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). Collaborating across four major fields—quantum materials, quantum computing, quantum universe, and quantum mathematics—our members form a cross-border, cross-disciplinary research team.
This page introduces the core members leading the project, the coordinator who bridges collaboration, and the early-career fellows driving the next generation of quantum science.
