Abstract: Fascinating phenomena can arise when ensembles of quantum
particles interact in a correlated fashion. Emblematic instances are
fractional quantum Hall states, which realize special types of quantum
fluids with extraordinary properties, such as fractionalized charges and
anyonic statistics. In this talk, we will first explore how
state-of-the-art quantum simulation techniques are bringing these
concepts into cold-atom experiments. We will then describe a recent
experimental realization of a Laughlin-type fractional quantum Hall
