Colleague,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">We
would like to bring your attention to the “It from Qubit" Summer
School taking place at Perimeter Institute from July 18-29, 2016.
</p>
<p style="text-align:justify"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">In
recent years, compelling evidence has emerged that information
theory provides a powerful way to structure our thinking about
quantum gravity and quantum field theory. In turn, fundamental
physics provides new classes of fascinating questions for
quantum information theorists to address.</span></p>
<p><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">In
spite of these exciting developments, high energy physics and
quantum information theory remain distinct disciplines and
communities, separated by significant barriers to communication
and collaboration. This school has been organized by the "It
from Qubit" Simons Foundation Collaboration to promote
communication and learning between the two research
communities. In particular we strongly encourage applications
from interested students and junior researchers whose background
is limited to either of the two fields but who are interested in
reaching across disciplinary boundaries.</span> <span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">
The school will include both lectures and hands-on tutorials.</span></p>
