Erik Huestis Speaks with Pharmaceutical Executive About How Quantum Computing is Poised to Take Off in the Pharma Setting

February 15, 2024

Intellectual Property Partner Erik Huestis spoke with Pharmaceutical Executive about the use of quantum computing in the pharmaceutical setting. “The application in biotech is that it’s extremely computationally prohibitive to compute attributes of molecules and complex com-pounds in a classical regime, but quantum simulation and universal quantum computing allows us to compute those properties of pharmaceutically interesting molecules on a reasonable time scale with reasonable precision. That feeds directly into the discovery pipeline.”
