Adelaide Optics Chapter

Can you spot our team at the Quantum Australia Conference 2026? 🔍👀

You may have caught us around the booths with the Australian Institute of Physics, Centre of Light for Life, and the ARC Training Centre for Current and Emergent Quantum Technologies. Perhaps you saw us volunteering to assist attendees, running science outreach demonstrations, or in seminars, learning about opportunities.

By being a part of the AOC committee, we get the chance to visit conferences and develop our careers!
