Perimeter Institute is a research center in Waterloo, Ontario, focused on theoretical physics and related inquiry. It hosts a diverse community that includes theoretical physicists, PhD and master's trainees, and the world’s largest group of independent postdoctoral fellows, all supported by administrative staff. The institute emphasizes collaboration and idea-driven work, with spaces designed to foster interaction, including collaboration spaces with blackboards and a full-size theatre for lectures and events. Its campus includes an on-site restaurant, a fitness centre, a reflecting pool, and common areas that support both intellectual engagement and well-being, and it is within easy reach of parks and Uptown Waterloo amenities. It serves researchers and students through programs and collaborations that enable knowledge exchange in the field. A recent development is the June 2026 launch by Perimeter Scholars International of a picture book titled Alice and Bob's Quantum Adventure.
