The conference aims to bring together leading experts in quantum physics, material science, and related fields to discuss the latest advancements and theoretical challenges in quantum materials. These materials, characterized by their unique properties such as quantum entanglement, topological phases, and highly frustrated magnetism, are at the forefront of both fundamental research and technological applications. The conference will focus on several key topics, including the magnetocaloric effect, quantum entanglement, and the role of quantum materials in computing and information science. Special attention will be given to the exploration of novel quantum states, magnetic phase transitions, and disordered systems, which are crucial for understanding and developing next-generation quantum technologies. By fostering collaboration and exchange of ideas, this event aims to advance our understanding of these complex systems and explore their potential in applications like magnetic cooling and quantum information processing.

Location and access
The conference will be held at the MIR - Maison internationale de la recherche at Neuville. By public transport, you should get to the stop "Neuville Université" on RER line A; for planning your trip from train stations as well as CDG airport, the Transilien website may be useful.
Should you arrive at CDG airport, you may also take bus 1958 from Roissypôle. First, take the free shuttle train CDGval from your arrival terminal to the bus terminal at Roissypôle (location of bus stop on Google Maps). Bus 9518 is from departure to final destination at Cergy Préfecture (departure bus stop on Google Maps) at 2.15 € if you buy the ticket in advance or at 2.50 € for an SMS ticket. Finally, 1 stop on RER line A from Cergy Préfecture to Neuville Université. This route is a bit more complicated than via RER lines B and A, but may be faster and is definitely cheaper.
From the stop Neuville Université, it is a short walk to the MIR, see access map.
Tips for affordable travel across Île-de-France
At the airport, you can request the Navigo Semaine (a weekly ticket valid throughout the Île-de-France region, including travel from the airport to Cergy, Neuville, and Paris). You should receive a plastic card that you will tap at the terminal. For just 30.75 €, you can use public transport for unlimited rides across the Île-de-France region all week (valid from Monday to Sunday).
When applying for the Navigo Semaine card, a photo is required. If you purchase through the Île-de-France Mobilités app, you can simply upload your current photo to your profile. However, your mobile must support NFC transmission, and you need an internet connection when tapping at each terminal. In this case, you can just tap your mobile device to the terminal.
