We warmly invite you to take part in the 14th International Conference
on Quantum Physics and Logic (QPL), which will take place at Radboud
University between Monday 3 and Friday 7 July, 2017.

The conference brings together researchers working on mathematical
foundations of quantum physics, quantum computing, and related areas,
with a focus on structural perspectives and the use of logical tools,
ordered algebraic and category-theoretic structures, formal languages,
semantical methods, and other computer science techniques applied to
the study of physical behaviour in general. Work that applies
structures and methods inspired by quantum theory to other fields
(including computer science) is also welcome.

Previous QPL events were held in Glasgow (2016), Oxford (2015),
Kyoto (2014), Barcelona (2013), Brussels (2012), Nijmegen (2011),
Oxford (2010), Oxford (2009), Reykjavik (2008), Oxford (2006),
Chicago (2005), Turku (2004), and Ottawa (2003).


REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN!
