To make quantum computing practical for real-world challenges such as drug discovery and material innovation, it is crucial to understand and reduce its resource requirements. Our work with PsiQuantum focuses on optimising the quantum resources needed to solve cryptographic problems, a key step in advancing quantum computing for broader applications in this field.

Utilising quantum computing for breast cancer subtyping
STFC Hartree Centre worked with Royal Brompton Harefield Hospitals, Imperial College London and IBM through the Hartree National Centre for Digital Innovation (HNCDI) using quantum computing to differentiate between breast cancer subtypes.

Using quantum computing to improve molecular modelling in drug development
STFC Hartree Centre worked with AstraZeneca and Algorithmiq through the Hartree National Centre for Digital Innovation (HNCDI) programme to improve molecular modelling accuracy and accelerate drug development.

Boosting the efficiency of drug discovery using quantum computing
As part of the Hartree National Centre for Digital Innovation (HNCDI) programme, STFC Hartree Centre collaborated with IBM Research to explore how quantum computing can be used to increase efficiency in drug discovery and development.
