Building Fault-Tolerant Quantum Algorithms with PsiQuantum
- When:
- Monday, May 18, 2026 12:30 pm - 4:30 pm
- Where:
- Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois
- Description:
-
In this half-day interactive workshop, participants will explore Construct, PsiQuantum’s purpose-built platform for fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC). We’ll dive into the specific tools that address the unique challenges of authoring fault-tolerant quantum programs. Starting from the conceptual foundations and basic building blocks, we’ll move into in-depth algorithm design and analysis, complete with detailed quantum resource estimations. Participants should bring a laptop to participate in hands-on coding exercises and demonstrations.
Because of high demand and limited space, those interested are asked to apply. We will accommodate as many participants as possible, and we will confirm participation by email. The event is free of charge. Lunch will be served.

Applications are open to students, postdoctoral researchers, faculty, and research staff who are enrolled or employed full-time at a college, university, or national laboratory, and who have a demonstrated background in quantum computing. For this event, first preference will be given to applicants from Illinois. We encourage all applicants to look out for future events in the Midwest region.
The workshop is co-hosted with Northwestern University, the Institute for Quantum Information Research and Engineering (INQUIRE), and the Northwestern-Argonne Institute for Science and Engineering (NAISE), with support from the Chicago Quantum Exchange.
Join us to discover the future of quantum programming.
