Nano & Quantum Workshop
The University of Oslo in Norway and four partners from the Global South, namely the Universidad del Valle (Colombia), the Association of Colombian State Universities of the Caribbean (Colombia), the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos (Peru) and the University of Havana (Cuba), established the Quantum Technology Education Consortium between Norway, South America and Cuba (QTECNOS) programme. To ensure the transfer of industrially relevant skills and wider dissemination, we have joined forces with the Nordic Quantum Computing Group in Norway.
QTECNOS is a strategy to strengthen academic and research cooperation with the aim of improving the current situation of education in quantum science and technology both in the Global South and in Norway. It will also increase the quality and internationalisation of academic programmes and promote student mobility between the partners. QTECNOS is funded by the Norwegian Directorate for Higher Education and Skills (HK-dir).
Massive Sequencing of Microorganisms Course.
The Universidad del Valle opens the First Course on Massive Sequencing of Microorganisms in Valle del Cauca. The course will be taught through the Faculty of Natural and Exact Sciences and will be in charge of Professor Andrés Castillo Giraldo, who was part of the epidemiological surveillance group of the Municipal Public Health Secretariat.
