Dear all, Apologies for sending the invitation again. Julia Cramer’s affiliation was listed incorrectly in the original message. Assistant Professor Julia Cramer is a quantum physicist and science communication researcher at Leiden University. Best regards, Lise Dear all, Join us for the next QUBITS Seminar on June 16, 2025, where Assistant Professor Julia Cramer, quantum physicist and science communication researcher (Leiden University) will give a talk entitled: How to talk about quantum; about framing, metaphors and engagement on quantum science and technologies Date: June 16, 2025 Time: 14:15–16:00 Location: Dept. of Chemistry, Aud I (1514-213) Format: 45-minute talk followed by refreshments All are welcome! Drinks and snacks will be served after the talk. Please accept this calendar invitation if you plan to attend—it helps us estimate catering needs. ABSTRACT Quantum science and technologies are advancing rapidly, but what about public understanding and engagement? In this talk, Julia Cramer—leader of the Quantum and Society research group at Leiden University—addresses the importance of involving society in the quantum revolution. She shares insights from empirical studies on how quantum is framed in TEDx talks and news media, explores the metaphors used to describe quantum concepts, and presents findings from a quantum exhibition at a large music festival in the Netherlands. In a time of growing science skepticism, this talk highlights how communication, framing and dialogue are key to building societal relevance and trust in emerging quantum technologies. This is a shortened version of the abstract.
