Introduction:
Towards « Hybrid Qomputing »
Kristel Michielsen, Jülich Supercomputing Centre, Guillaume Colin de Verdière, Senior Expert on HPC and Jean-Philippe Nominé, HPC Strategic Collaborations Manager, CEA

	Biography: Prof. Michielsen received her PhD from the University of Groningen, (the Netherlands) for work on the simulation of strongly correlated electron systems in 1993. Since 2009 she is group leader of the research group Quantum Information Processing at the Jülich Supercomputing Centre, Forschungszentrum Jülich (Germany) and is also Professor of Quantum Information Processing at RWTH Aachen University (Germany). Her current research interests include quantum computation, quantum annealing, emulation of quantum computers and quantum annealers, benchmarking, quantum algorithms and potential use cases, hybrid quantum-classical computation and quantum statistical physics.
	Biography: HPC “International Expert” at CEA. Dr. Guillaume Colin de Verdière is a CEA staff member since 1984 and got his PhD in 2019. He has been working in various fields of HPC ever since. His expertise ranges from large scientific code development to high performance scientific visualization. Since 2008, Guillaume is involved in novel architectures explorations, either through internal studies or in various European projects (Prace IP, H4H, EXDCI, Exanode, MontBlanc2020, EPI…). He is investigating their potential to form the core of an Exascale computer.
	Biography: Dr. Nominé manages HPC strategic collaborations (EU and international) at CEA. He joined CEA HPC division in 1992, where he held different managing positions in HPC software development. Dr. Nominé has been involved in PRACE since 2007 and was a Member of PRACE AISBL Board of Directors in 2010-2011. He was then ETP4HPC (European association for HPC) Office manager between 2012 and 2019 and is now a member of ETP4HPC Steering Board, ETP4HPC Vice-Chair for Research, as well as a member of EuroHPC Research and Innovation Advisory Group (RIAG). J.P. Nominé graduated from Ecole Polytechnique (engineer degree) and holds a PhD from Université Pierre-et-Marie-Curie (Paris) in robotics.
