About the Workshop

The field of quantum materials is undergoing a transformative period. Breakthroughs in designing and probing new quantum materials—including quantum magnets, unconventional superconductors, topological and correlated flat-band systems, and low-dimensional materials—have revealed a plethora of novel quantum phases and emergent phenomena. At the frontier of these advances are the synthesis of exotic materials, the development of experimental techniques, and the new frameworks in theoretical modeling. This field features a particularly close collaborations between theoretical and experimental communities, to resolve the complexity of strong correlation and interacting degrees of freedom, understanding material based phenomena, and propose their applications in quantum and information technologies. 

Co-organized by Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) and the Trans-Scale Quantum Science Institute (TSQS) of the University of Tokyo, this workshop aims to bring together leading international experts and emerging researchers from both theoretical and experimental communities to foster in-depth and interdisciplinary discussions on novel quantum phases, emergent phenomena, and their implications for quantum and information technologies. We intend to cover a range of timely and exciting topics in quantum materials, including:

  • Quantum magnetism and spintronics
  • Flat-band physics and quantum geometry
  • Quantum matter driven out of equilibrium
  • Unconventional superconductors

The program will consist of a two-day school designed to establish a common foundation for graduate students and early-career researchers, followed by a three-day symposium featuring invited and contributed talks that highlight recent breakthroughs, open challenges, and opportunities for future international collaboration.

Code of Conduct

Purpose

To ensure that all participants have a clear understanding of the behavior that is expected of them.

Code of Conduct

We are committed to making our workshops (workshop(s) organized by OIST, hereinafter “our workshop(s)”) an inclusive space for sharing ideas and knowledge. We will not tolerate disrespectful communication, discrimination, harassment, or bullying in any form. As such, all participants attending our workshops are required to comply with this Code of Conduct. To provide all participants the opportunity to benefit from our workshops, we at OIST are dedicated to a positive, safe and harassment-free experience. Harassment in any form is specifically prohibited.

What is Harassment?

Harassment involves continued antisocial or unreasonable actions that violate a reasonable person’s personal rights and/or dignity and cause mental suffering, and thus worsen the person’s environment or make him/her anxious about participation. Behavior that is acceptable to one person may not be acceptable to another, so we ask that you use discretion to be sure that respect is communicated. Harassment intended in a joking manner nevertheless constitutes unacceptable behavior. Speech that is not welcomed or that is personally offensive, whether it is based on gender, age, sexual orientation, mental or physical disability, ethnicity, national origin, religion etc. will not be tolerated.

If you are being harassed, notice that someone else is being harassed, or have any other concerns, please bring this to the immediate attention of the organizers. If you wish to report an issue concerning the organizers, you can contact the Conference and Workshop Section directly and submit a confidential report by sending an email to workshop-codeofconduct@oist.jp or submitting a report through the ⁠webform.

All complaints will be taken seriously and responded to by the Dean of Research promptly. Confidentiality will be maintained to the extent that it does not compromise the rights of others. Individuals found in breach of this Code of Conduct will be dismissed from the workshop immediately. Retaliation for reporting harassment is also a violation of Code of Conduct, as is reporting an incident in bad faith.
