DESCRIPTION:The power of quantum information lies in its capac
 ity to be non-local\, encoded in correlations amon
 g entangled particles.  Yet the interactions betwe
 en particles are typically local\, forming a bottl
 eneck in the production of entanglement.  To circu
 mvent this limitation in the laboratory\, we trap 
 an array of atom clouds in an optical resonator\, 
 in which photons act as messengers conveying infor
 mation between distant atoms.  We have developed a
  versatile experimental toolbox for programming th
 e network of interactions and correlations arising
  from these photon-mediated interactions\, includi
 ng a broadly applicable protocol for preparing ent
 angled graph states with arbitrary connectivity.  
 I will present experiments illustrating implicatio
 ns for multiparameter quantum sensing and for quan
 tum simulations of phenomena ranging from topologi
 cal physics to quantum gravity.\n
