About
TartanQEC is a workshop on practical routes to useful quantum error correction. The emphasis is on approaches that connect directly to implementation constraints and near-term design decisions. Other themes are benchmarking, resource estimation, and related practical questions.
The workshop is co-organised by the University of Edinburgh and the University of Strathclyde, as part of Quantum Fringe 2026.
