Upcoming NAISE Events

November 4-6, 2025 | CHiMaD Event

CHiMaD Phase Field Methods Workshop XIX

Scope: This workshop will highlight recent advances in phase field (PF) modeling with a focus on mechanics-driven phenomena. Speakers will explore topics ranging from anisotropic growth, grain evolution to fracture PF, emphasizing both fundamental theory and applications. The program aims to connect researchers both developing and benchmarking new PF methods for complex materials problems. 

Organizers: Duncan Burns & Begum Gulsoy (Northwestern), Alex Chadwick (Naval Research Laboratory)

You can access information on the community and previous workshops at the PFHub: The Phase Field Community Hub website.

November 5, 2025 | ANL Event in partnership with NAISE & INQUIRE

Quantum Prairie Economic Forum (Postponed)

Location / Time: Hyde Park Labs, 5207 S Harper Avenue, Chicago IL 60615 / 9:00AM - 12:00PM

Scope: The Quantum Prairie Economic Symposium is an opportunity for Chicago-area small businesses, nonprofit organizations and municipalities to connect with experts in quantum information science and to learn how they can join the vibrant Chicago-area quantum community. 

The half-day symposium will feature a keynote address, a panel on the economic and research impacts of quantum information science, and a panel on the importance of growing a quantum workforce.

As a member of a small business or nonprofit or as a representative of a Chicagoland town or county, you will have the chance to network with the quantum information science community, become familiar with the quantum activity happening in your backyard, and learn what all the quantum buzz is about.

Registration (and additional information): Coming soon.

Organizers:  Argonne National Laboratory, Northwestern (NAISE & INQUIRE), Chicago Quantum Exchange, University of Chicago (Polsky Center & Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering), University of Wisconsin-Madison
