Topic: Quantum reference frames

This Perimeter Institute conference brings together researchers studying quantum reference frames, quantum gravity, quantum foundations and related experiments. Topics include relational observables, quantum information in dynamical spacetime, locality, causality, entanglement, and the operational meaning of observers and subsystems. The meeting runs from 26 to 30 October 2026 in Waterloo, Canada. The organizer provides information for virtual participation.

Study modern connections between gravitational theory and quantum information in an intensive doctoral school for young researchers. Lectures develop covariant phase space, boundary symmetries and edge modes in general relativity, then connect these tools to observable algebras, celestial holography and quantum reference frames. Leading researchers introduce the foundations and discuss current research directions at the interface of classical and quantum gravity. 11 April 2027 at 15:00 through 16 April at 17:00, Europe/Zurich (CEST, UTC+2). Participants must attend the full week. Preregistrat
