FRIAS Fellow Sansone receives Marie Skłodowska-Curie funding
The doctoral network QU-ATTO, coordinated by Prof. Dr. Giuseppe Sansone, is supported by the “Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Network” program. It investigates processes in quantum information science, such as quantum entanglement or coherence, with the temporal resolution enabled by attosecond technology. The Doctoral Networks (DN) support transnational doctoral programs involving various institutions from both the academic and non-academic sectors.

Prof. Dr. Giuseppe Sansone, head of Attosecond and Strong Field Physics at the Institute of Physics at the University of Freiburg and Senior Fellow at FRIAS from September 2024 to April 2025, coordinates the newly established Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Network “The Quantum Information Science and Ultrafast Nonlinear Coherent Control at the ATTO-second Timescale (QU-ATTO)” within the framework of the Horizon Europe program.
Numerous universities, research institutions, and industrial partners are involved in QU-ATTO. The network commenced its work on September 1, 2024, and is now able to fill 15 PhD positions. The funding totals 3.9 million euros.
The Doctoral Networks (DN) support transnational doctoral programs that connect institutions from both academic and non-academic sectors. The goal is to enhance the career prospects of scientists through international, interdisciplinary, and intersectoral mobility and to strengthen knowledge transfer between the participating institutions. This aims to increase the sustainability, quality, and relevance of doctoral programs.

About Prof. Dr. Giuseppe Sansone
Giuseppe Sansone became full professor for experimental physics at the University of Freiburg in 2016, where he leads the Attosecond and Strong Field Physics group. His research interests are focused on attosecond metrology at free-electron lasers and on the investigation of ultrafast dynamics in molecules using coincidence spectroscopy.
