Please use the LaTeX template available here to prepare your abstract as an 1-page pdf file. To submit your abstract, first log in to the website by clicking on the "Login" icon, then go to the "Abstract submission" tab. 
As the number of participants in limited, submitting an abstract does not guarantee you a seat. Please do not forget to register. 

The colloquium will cover the latest developments in quantum technologies, structured along the key research themes of the GdR TeQ:

• Fundamental Quantum Aspects
• Quantum Communications
• Quantum Sensing & Metrology
• Quantum Simulation
• Quantum Processing, Algorithms, and Computing
• Transverse Engineering and Methods

The program will consist in tutorials by internationally recognized experts providing a synthetic focus on specific topics (50' talk +10' questions), invited talks presenting recent advances in the field (25' talk + 5' questions), and two poster sessions. In addition to invited speakers, ~15 poster contributions will be ugraded by the scientific committee as oral presentations.
