Quantum Information Scotland (QUISCO) is a network of researchers working on all aspects of quantum information science. Its aim is to promote a research community of physicists, computer scientists and mathematicians in Scotland, to encourage a dialogue amongst the diverse spectrum of disciplines and promote collaboration.

QUISCO was founded by Elham Kashefi (Edinburgh), Daniel Oi (Strathclyde), Erika Andersson (Heriot-Watt), Simon Gay (Glasgow), and Natalia Korolkova (St Andrews) in 2008. It holds regular meetings for the presentation of research, open problems, perspectives, and opportunities related to quantum information science. QUISCO is associated with SUPA, SICSA and QNET.
