2025 was a year of highs &challenges for physics. We marked 100 years of quantum through @UNESCO's #IYQ, with AIP supporting hundreds of events nationwide. As we head into 2026, we continue to champion physics, maths and the next generation.

Australia’s #IYQ2025 was a major success, supported by AIP from the @UNESCO request through to nationwide engagement. Highlights included tours by Prof Donna Strickland, the Marie Curie Lecture Series, and the Quantum & Dark Matter Road Trip. #IYQ2025 #QuantumCurious
