Quantum Interactions: A panel discussion with playwright Eleanor Wong and quantum researchers

Eleanor Wong was writer-in-residence at the Centre for Quantum Technologies (CQT) at the National University of Singapore from September to December 2014. At this reception and panel discussion, she will describe why she is inspired by science and what happened during her residency. She will be joined by CQT Principal Investigators Wenhui Li and Berge Englert to discuss what happens when science meets art. The discussion will be moderated by Paul Tan, Director of the Singapore Writers' Festival 2011-2014 and Deputy CEO of the National Arts Council.

Eleanor is a published playwright and poet who has pursued parallel careers in law and media. Her plays have been produced in Singapore and regionally.
