> Dave, for IP, if you don’t mind a little self-promotion…
>
> The second run of our MOOC, Understanding Quantum Computers, is now open at
> https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/intro-to-quantum-computing/
> Free during the period of the run (four weeks plus some slack at the end), with monitored discussion boards and the 
> like where my students and I will be answering questions and generally facilitating discussion.
>
> We cover seven key principles, including superposition and entanglement in quantum states, key quantum algorithms, 
> several of the most successful experimental technologies, and survey the budding quantum information technology 
> industry.  (Which is advancing faster than we can track!)
>
> We have increased the amount of material about 25% compared to the first run last fall, with more on Grover’s search 
> algorithm, quantum chemistry (with Professor James Whitfield of Dartmouth), and quantum computer architectures 
> (Professor Kae Nemoto of Japan’s National Institute of Informatics).
>
> See you online,
