Is teleportation just fiction or is it a fact? And what is the true nature of light? The microscopic world has been a source of fascination for centuries. Over the past hundred years we have learnt that some very strange things happen in the world of the very small. This is the realm of quantum mechanics.

A highly interactive and interesting talk will be held by Dr André Xuereb and Dr Vittorio Peano from the Department of Physics at the University of Malta who will go through some of the more intriguing and wonderful aspects of this topic and talk about how their research is giving rise to new technologies developed at the University of Malta and by their colleagues around the world.

Following this talk there will be a lively discussion where André and Vittorio will be answering questions from the audience. Some refreshments will also be served.
