Exploring Quantum Assembly at Lunch (EQuAL) is a weekly seminar for UCSB graduate students and post-doctoral scholars interested in quantum science. These 30- to 40-minute pedagogical talks allow ample time for questions from students across multiple disciplines and are often one of the first talks given by new graduate students.

Quantum Assembly encompasses quantum phenomena in systems such as complex molecules, optical lattices, solid-state heterostructures, DNA, and even living organisms. Quantum assembly and technology at UCSB connects departments across disciplines including Electrical and Computer Engineering, Physics, Molecular Biology, Chemistry, and Materials.

The EQuAL seminar will alternate among several formats, including informal research presentations by graduate students, guest speakers on scientific and professional development topics, and “journal club” style general discussions of new results or ideas.

Lunch is provided to those who RSVP (food is purchased with non-NSF funds).
