Abstract
Moonshot Goal 6 is one of Japan's national projects aimed at establishing an FTQC (Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computer) by 2050. Prof. Kobayashi serves as one of the project managers of Moonshot Goal 6, working to develop a scalable and highly-integrated quantum bit error correction system. This invited talk first explains Moonshot Goal 6 and then focuses on the classical electronics implemented with integrated circuits to control qubits and correct errors in both room-temperature and cryogenic environments.

Bio
Kazutoshi Kobayashi received his B.E., M.E. and Ph. D. in Electronic Engineering from Kyoto University, Japan in 1991, 1993, 1999, respectively. Starting as an Assistant Professor in 1993, he was promoted to an Associate Professor in the Graduate School of Informatics, Kyoto University in 2001, and stayed in that position until 2009. For two years during this time, he acted as an Associate Professor of VLSI Design and Education Center (VDEC) at the University of Tokyo.  Since 2009, he has
