Nobel Laureate in physics to speak at Cornell April 8

A new series of talks hosted by the Cornell Undergraduate Research Board (CURB) kicks off April 8 with a lecture by Nobel Laureate John M. Martinis.

Martinis, professor emeritus of physics at the University of California Santa Barbara, will speak about his research in quantum mechanics from 5-6 p.m. April 8 in the Rhodes-Rawlings Auditorium, Room KG70 in Klarman Hall. 

Martinis shared the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics with John Clarke and Michel H. Devoret for discoveries involving macroscopic quantum mechanical phenomena in superconducting circuits, work that helped lay the foundation for advances in quantum information science.
