The National Science Foundation (NSF) has recently awarded $12 million to perform research in developing quantum optical communication systems through 6 teams, with a total of 26 researchers at 15 US institutions. This event will serve two purposes: (i) annual grantees review, and (ii) a forum for a few invited experts to present their views, comment on the EFRI research, and participate in a discussion of quantum optical communication.
