Beginner's Guide to Quantum Computing
Maker Faire Bay Area 2017
May 19th-21st
I'll take you along on the same journey I went through over the last few months as I picked up the basic concepts of quantum computing and started experimenting with the IBM Quantum Experience: the world's first real quantum processor accessible to the general public through the cloud.

Dr. Talia Gershon, a materials scientist by training, came to IBM Research in 2012. After 4.5 years of developing next-generation solar cell materials, she got inspired to learn about quantum computing because it might enable all kinds of discoveries (including new materials). Having authored the Beginner's Guide to the QX, she passionately believes that anyone can get started learning quantum!
