The video can be recorded via screen capture in PowerPoint, Keynote, Zoom, or a different application of your choice.

Summary
Following the success of the first two ct.qmat Fall Schools, we are delighted to announce the Third ct.qmat Spring School “Topological Quantum Matter,” which will take place in the beautiful city of Jena. It is dedicated to introducing the rapidly evolving research frontiers of quantum materials to early career scientists at the PhD and postdoc level. The school will feature lectures from renowned scientists from both theoretical and experimental backgrounds, allowing the participants to develop a deeper understanding of quantum systems. In addition to interaction with top researchers, the Spring School aims to promote peer-to-peer networking, while providing the participants with an opportunity to present their own results in a specially dedicated poster session.
