Quantum for Kids — Why We Need to Start Early

Quantum computing isn’t just for PhDs — it needs a pipeline of talent that starts as early as K-12 education.

At a recent House hearing, Dr. Celia Merzbacher (QED-C), Dr. Charina Chou (Google), Dr. Pete Shadbolt (PsiQuantum), and Dr. Charles Tahan (Microsoft) explained why it’s critical to get kids excited about STEM if the U.S. wants to stay competitive in the quantum race.

Their message:

– Start young — if students wait until grad school, it’s too late

– Invest in public-private partnerships like the Q12 Partnership

– Fund programs that make quantum education accessible

– Don’t just recruit elite scientists — build a broad, diverse talent pool

As Tahan put it, “I just want to work with the best people. I don’t care where they come from.”
