Wiki Scientist Course 2025: Quantum Science

July 9 8:00pm – Aug. 13 8:00pm EDT, 2025
Virtual (live)

In celebration of the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, we are excited to offer an APS Wiki Scientist Course focused on quantum science. Participants will learn how to edit, update, and even translate Wikipedia pages on quantum science topics and scientists. They will help ensure that the Wikipedia articles cite relevant quantum research, drawing on the curated collection of the most influential works on quantum science that have appeared in the Physical Review Journals.

By participating in a WikiScientist course, you will:

  • Improve access to physics knowledge for a global audience,
  • Raise awareness of the accomplishments of women and other underrepresented groups in physics, and
  • Grow your science communication skills.

The course will meet virtually, once a week on Thursdays at 11 a.m. - 12 p.m. PT/ 2 - 3 p.m. ET from Jul. 10 - Aug. 14, 2025.
