Quantum Zeitgeist

A $100 million bet on quantum computing at Cleveland Clinic

Cleveland Clinic installed an IBM quantum computer on its campus in 2021, becoming the first healthcare system to host one on-site. The installation took nine months to complete and was part of a 10-year, $100 million partnership with IBM, led by the Clinic's first chief research information officer, Dr. Lara Jehi.

OutlookPlausible

Within two years, Cleveland Clinic researchers could use the on-site system to run iterative quantum chemistry simulations on real clinical datasets without moving protected health data to the cloud, making quantum-informed drug-repurposing candidates a practical near-term target.

Cleveland Clinic and IBM Develop Quantum Machine Learning Model for Cancer Neoantigen Prediction

Cleveland Clinic and IBM announced the development of a quantum machine learning model designed to predict cancer neoantigens, potentially improving the selection of immunogenic peptide sequences for personalized cancer vaccines.

OutlookPlausible

The model is refined on larger datasets and integrated into a hybrid classical–quantum pipeline for neoantigen screening in early‑phase clinical trials.
