InIdEx Calls for proposals
The QuanTech@Paris initiative, supported by IdEx Université Paris Cité, is launching its annual calls for proposals to support research in quantum technologies across its network.
Three calls are yearly open:
-
Intervention Call – For urgent interventions
-
Invitation Call – For supporting external invitations
-
Equipment Call – For funding the purchase of research equipment
Each call is intended to strengthen the QuanTech@Paris network. Applications must be submitted in English, with supporting documents as specified in the individual guidelines.
Applications must be submitted in a single PDF file by email to quantech@u-paris.fr
Calls 2025/2026

Quantum Computing and Quantum Physics Explained Differently
Quantum computing and quantum physics are now major scientific disciplines, but they remain complex to understand. To make them more accessible to non-expert audiences, Sophie Laplante, Associate Professor in algorithms and quantum and classical computational complexity at IRIF, the Fundamental Computer Science Research Institute (Université Paris Cité/CNRS), and appointed Senior Member of the Institut Universitaire de France (IUF) in 2025 under the Science Communication Chair, designs educational tools.
