The workshop aims to bring together researchers from the computational chemistry and condensed matter physics fields interested in the simulation of molecules and materials on quantum computers. Topics to be discussed include quantum algorithms for simulations on NISQ machines and fault-tolerant quantum computers, challenges in the use of this technology for simulations in the quantum chemistry and materials science spaces, applications beyond the calculation of ground state energies...
