Title: Beyond quantum theory: the physics of hybrid systems

Abstract: The theory of quantum computation has brought us rapid technological developments, together with remarkable improvements in how we understand quantum theory. In this talk, I shall describe the foundations of a theoretical programme to extend the quantum theory of computation beyond quantum theory itself, based on the recently proposed constructor theory. I will then describe a recent application of this new approach to the problem of witnessing quantum effects in gravity.
