Hikaru Yokomori (a first-year master's student in the Graduate School of Media and Governance) and Marie Koyama (a fourth-year student in the Faculty of Environment and Information Studies), both from Professor Rodney Van Meter's laboratory at the Faculty of Environment and Information Studies, have been selected for the NQC Exploratory Program of the NICT Quantum Camp.
The NICT Quantum Camp Exploratory Program, hosted by the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT), is a program that encourages students to advance their research in the quantum information field. Aiming to foster researchers and developers of applied technologies in the quantum ICT field, the program provides participants with opportunities to create outputs through investigation, research, and development, along with funding for activities, advice from experts, and networking opportunities.
Out of nine applications, the project by Yokomori and Koyama, "Simulation and real-device evaluation of the Distimation Protocol for quantum entanglement with asymmetric fidelity," was selected for the NQC (NICT Quantum Camp) Exploratory Program, and they successfully completed the program as selected participants.

Comment from Marie Koyama
I am very pleased to have been selected for the NQC Exploratory Program and to have had the valuable opportunity to interact with experts in the quantum field. I worked on this project with an interest in evaluation methods for imperfect entangled states, aiming for the practical application of quantum networks. Through this program, my desire to continue research at the forefront of the quantum field to contribute to the development of quantum networks has grown even stronger.
