Quantum computing is rapidly gaining attention from governments and industry leaders globally. In this blog, we explore what the Hartree Centre contributes to this landscape and how we support UK industry with the adoption of emerging technologies like quantum computing.

Estimating and reducing resources for solving cryptography problems using quantum computers
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.
