Welcome to
Symposium on Spintronics and Quantum Information
(SymposiumISQI)

The Symposium will be held on January 11-13, 2024, in Będlewo Palace Research and Conference Centre of the Polish Academy of Sciences. It is organized by the Institue of Spintronics and Quantum Information (ISQI) of the Faculty of Physics of the Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznan.

The Institute of Spintronics and Quantum Information has been created on January 1, 2021, and since that time it has been organizing yearly symposia on broad aspects of condensed matter physics (with focus on spin-related phenomena) and quantum information.

The first Symposium took place in 2021 at the Faculty of Physics of AMU, Poznań, and started with the official inauguration of ISQI. The second Symposium was also organized at the Faculty and took place at the end of 2022.

In 2024, the SymposiumISQI will be held in Będlewo near Poznan, Poland, at a beautiful neo-Gothic style palace: https://www.palacbedlewo.pl/en/. The aim of the Symposium is to provide an international platform for the presentation of novel scientific ideas at the intersection of the fields of broadly understood quantum information and condensed matter physics.

The participation in Symposium will offer an excellent opportunity to share the latest results, exchange opinions, and discuss emergent and future directions of research. Lectures will be delivered by world-leading experts in several key areas:

  • Spintronics and molecular magnetism,
  • Magnonics, spin waves and magnonic crystals,
  • Quantum information and quantum physics,
  • Quantum optics, cavity and circuit QED,
  • Strongly correlated systems,
  • Quantum simulators and quantum matter,
  • Nonlinear dynamics,
  • Topological states of matter,
  • Quantum transport in low-dimensional systems,
  • 2D materials and spin-orbit phenomena,
  • Bound states in superconductors.

Accommodation in Będlewo Palace

The conference fee includes accommodation for all participants, with each symposium attendee being assigned an individual room. In the case of a higher number of attendees, double rooms may be arranged by prior agreement. If any participants are interested in accommodation in Poznań before or after the conference, we recommend exploring the offers available on online portals, such as booking.com.

Travel to Poznań and Będlewo

The most convenient means of transportation are direct flights to Poznan or connecting flights to Warsaw or Berlin. From Warsaw and Berlin, there are frequent and affordable direct train or bus connections (such as Flix bus) to Poznań. Please feel free to reach out to us for any questions or assistance regarding the transportation to the conference at symsik@amu.edu.pl.

IMPORTANT! Please note that there will not be any bus transportation provided by the organizers from Poznań to Będlewo Palace. We plan to reach Będlewo by private cars, leaving from the Faculty of Physics of Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań around 11.00-12.30 on Thursday. There is enough space for all participants. For details, please, contact the organizers. Transfer back to Poznań will be organized in the same way.

For participants arriving at a later date, transportation is available from the main bus station to Będlewo. The cost of this service is approximately 3 euros, and tickets can be purchased at the ticket office of the station or directly from the driver (payment in Polish currency only, cash only with no option to pay by card). Alternatively, a taxi (such as Uber) can be taken to Będlewo, with a cost of approximately 25-30 euros.

If any issues arise with your travel, we kindly request the attendees to contact the conference organizers directly. In case of exceptional circumstances, we can arrange individual transportation upon request.
