FYSICA - Program

Program FYSICA 2022: Friday 22 April

FYSICA 2022 was a wonderful day! We were very honoured to host the following plenary speakers:

Ronald Hanson (QuTech, TU Delft) - Physica Prize 2022 - abstract: Towards a quantum internet: status, progress and challenges
Peter Bauer (European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, Reading, UK) - abstract: High-performance computing and big data handling: The biggest challenge for weather and climate prediction

We loved the finals of the Young Speakers Contest. In the afternoon we offered a wide range of interesting focus sessions, all of them were fully booked:

TOURS
During the lunch break, the UT offered several labtours and guided tours: Technical Medical Center Tour (TechMed), Mesa+ NanoLab Tour, Applied Physics-Student Labs & Educational Facilities Tour and High Current Superconductivity Lab Tour. When you picked up your badge at the registration desk of FYSICA, you could sign up for these tours.

EVENING PROGRAM
After dinner we organised an evening program in cooperation with Studium Generale. A panel discussion entitled ‘Climate forecasts: limits to predictability’. This part of FYSICA was open for a broad audience and could be attended free of charge.
