Oone of the most influential and famously plainspoken voices in the quantum computing community.   Prof. Aaronson shared his perspectives on the latest research advancements, reflected on QUTAC's own research results, and discussed how the industrial end-user community is currently approaching quantum computing, along with the potential implications for QUTAC's work. His commitment to scientific outreach is also reflected in his widely read blog.   We would like to congratulate Prof. Aaronson on two recent milestones: receiving the prestigious Luca Trevisan Award for Expository Work in Theoretical Computer Science, and being elected as a member of the National Academy of Sciences.   QUTAC would like to thank Prof. Aaronson for the clarity and candor of his contribution, as well as the entire QUTAC community for the questions and enthusiasm."}
