The topic of quantum computing just keeps on cropping up. There doesn’t seem to be any sector that isn’t enthralled by the potential that the quantum revolution will bring – and pharma is no different.
Quantum computing technology uses quantum systems called “qubits”. They work with non-binary values, unlike classical computing which uses only bits with values of 0 or 1, and can overlap each other and act as a group.
German pharma company Boehringer Ingelheim has signed a collaborative agreement with Google Quantum AI to research and implement quantum computing in pharma research and development.
