2021 Dirac Lectures on Quantum Information Science

The 2021 Dirac Lectures series was dedicated to the subject of Quantum Information Science and the impact it has had on a variety of fields like quantum computing, biology, nuclear and particle physics. The lectures were held in a virtual format as a Zoom video conference, during the week of November 1-5, 2021. You can find a printable version of the poster here.
