JILA

Congratulations to Professor and JILA Fellow Jun Ye, who has been named the inaugural holder of the Monroe Endowed Professorship in Physics. This prestigious new professorship, the result of a $1 million endowment from CU alumnus Christopher Monroe, underscores the university’s growing prominence in quantum information science and applied quantum physics!

There's still time to apply for the American Physical Society Conference for Undergraduate Women and Gender Minorities in Physics (CU*IP), co-hosted by JILA and University of Colorado Boulder Physics! Be sure to share with the undergraduates you know and have them apply before the deadline! www.cuipboulder2025.com Anya Grafov Iona Binnie Zixian (Ruby) Wei Margie Bruff Willa Dworschack Thi H.

In a new "Nature" paper, JILA Fellow and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) physicist and University of Colorado Boulder Physics professor Adam Kaufman and his team, along with JILA and NIST Fellow Jun Ye and other collaborators, combine multiple atomic clocks into one system.

In a new "Physical Review Research" paper, JILA and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Fellows and University of Colorado Boulder Physics professors Ana Maria Rey and James Thompson, along with their research groups, compared two ways to measure quantum accuracy. https://lnkd.in/gjPryUe4 CU Boulder College of Arts and Sciences Quantum Systems Accelerator

Recently, JILA's Association of Graduate Student (JAGS) held another successful Seminar where graduate students Will Hettel of JILA Fellows and University of Colorado Boulder Physics professors Margaret Murnane's and Henry Kapteyn's group and Dylan Young of JILA and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Fellow and CU Boulder Physics prof James Thompson's group both presented on their research.

As a member of the programming subcommittee, I would like to encourage every undergraduate student to apply! We are working hard to make this conference a memorable experience ??

I am proud to be one of the Co-Chairs of the 2025 Conference for Undergraduate Women & Gender Minorities in Physics (CU*iP), hosted by JILA and the University of Colorado Boulder Physics! This conference was such an impactful experience during my time as an undergraduate student, and was pivotal in my continuing on to pursue a PhD in physics. I also previously helped organize the 2020 CU*iP at the University of Maryland, and I am so excited to be doing it again in Boulder! If you know any undergrads studying physics or a related field (not just in Boulder), please encourage them to apply to CU*iP! The conference supports undergraduate students all across the US and strives to empower the next generation of physicists. The best part - all conference costs besides the nominal registration fee are covered by the host site, so participants attend for free! If you or your organization are interested in supporting the conference, we welcome sponsors to contribute to the event. Your donation helps ensure that the conference remains accessible to all students and provides attendees with an exceptional experience. To make a financial contribution, feel free to reach out directly or take a look at our website for more information: www.cuipboulder2025.com
