University of Strasbourg
The European Center for Quantum Sciences (CESQ) is a transnational quantum research and educational hub of the University of Strasbourg and the CNRS. It builds upon an exceptional tradition of interdisciplinary research in Strasbourg that covers quantum physics chemistry, materials science, photonics and computing. CESQ provides an open environment for collaborations, training and innovation with state-of-the-art experimental and theory research. CESQ is part of the interdisciplinary institute of excellence “ISIS – Institut de Science et d’Ingénierie Supramoléculaires” (UMR 7006).
