DESCRIPTION:Nathan Shammah\, Unitary Fund\nPlease join us for the QSE Ce
 nter Quantum Seminar with Dr Nathan Shammah from the Unitary Fund\, w
 ho will speak Thursday March 7 on "Benchmarking\, simulating and correcti
 ng errors in quantum computers with open-source tools". \nLocation: CE 1 
 104\n\nPizzas will be available before the seminar at 12:00. All PhDs\, p
 ostdocs\, students\, and PIs are welcome to join us.\n\nTITLE: Benchmarki
 ng\, simulating and correcting errors in quantum computers with open-sourc
 e tools\n\nABSTRACT: \nUnitary Fund is a non-profit organization performi
 ng in-house research in quantum technology and supporting the quantum open
 -source ecosystem [1\,2]. I will give an overview of recent research resul
 ts in quantum error mitigation and error correction [3\,4]\, classical sim
 ulation [5]\, and benchmarking of quantum computers [6\,7]. This talk will
  give a brief overview of related open-source activities\, highlighting ho
 w new kinds of research-focused organizations can advance open innovation
