DESCRIPTION:Discover how to harness CUDA-Q and GPU acceleration for quant
 um computing\, hybrid algorithms\, and next-generation quantum hardware.
 \n\n*Please Note: This event is for The University of Manchester interna
 l staff only\n\nAs the era of hybrid quantum-classical computing matures
 \, programming these heterogeneous architectures becomes essential. This
  course provides a deep dive into CUDA-Q\, NVIDIA’s open-source platform
  for heterogeneous quantum-classical computing. Participants will learn 
 how to leverage GPU acceleration to simulate quantum circuits\, develop 
 hybrid algorithms\, and prepare for execution on current and future quan
 tum hardware. This course equips the attendees with the tools needed to 
 push the boundaries of quantum simulation and hybrid algorithm design us
 ing the industry-leading CUDA-Q platform. The course is intended for com
 putational scientists\, quantum algorithm researchers\, and software eng
 ineers familiar with Python who wish to harness GPU acceleration for qua
 ntum computing research.\n\nAbout the speaker: Esperanza Cuenca Gómez is
  a developer relations manager for quantum computing at NVIDIA. She has 
 a background in quantum computing\, consumer finance\, banking and strat
 egy consulting. As an industrial engineer\, Esperanza sees applied scien
 ce and engineering as ways to build new technologies\, solve problems an
 d contribute to society.\n\nSchedule\n\n10:00 - 10:15 Arrivals\n\n10:15
