QuEra Computing And Quantum Intelligence Corp Team Up To Accelerate Drug Discovery With Quantum Computing
QuEra Computing, the leader in neutral-atom quantum computing, and Quantum Intelligence Corp. (QIC), a South Korean pioneer in AI-driven drug development, have announced a strategic partnership. This collaboration is set to transform the way drugs are discovered and developed by harnessing QuEra's cutting-edge neutral atom-type quantum computers.
The partnership will utilize the extraordinary computing power of QuEra's quantum computers to boost the performance of QIC's QUEST platform. This integration of quantum computing with artificial intelligence aims to modernize the traditional approaches to drug development, making the process faster, more precise, and more efficient.
QIC's QUEST platform uses algorithms that analyze how electronic charges are distributed in molecules to predict how a drug will behave in the body, evaluating its effectiveness and safety. This partnership will leverage QuEra’s specialized knowledge in quantum computing to enhance these predictions, thus significantly accelerating drug development.
QuEra's neutral-atom quantum computers combine system size, coherence, and advanced processing modes. These computers offer a promising path to large-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computing. Since November 2022, QuEra’s first-generation neutral-atom quantum computers have been publicly accessible via a large public cloud service, and they remain the only neutral-atom platform available for public use. QuEra leads the neutral-atom market, offering dynamic qubit manipulation (qubit shuttling) for flexible and efficient quantum computations. Operating at room temperature, QuEra’s computers are built to integrate seamlessly with classical computing infrastructure.
