QC Ware calculates enzyme energy with hybrid quantum-classical method
QC Ware has demonstrated a hybrid quantum-classical algorithm to calculate the energy of an enzyme, a key step in drug design. The method splits the workload between classical computers and quantum processors to tackle a problem intractable for classical methods alone.
OutlookPlausible
Pharmaceutical companies could begin using QC Ware's hybrid method to screen enzyme-inhibitor candidates on near-term quantum hardware, potentially finding leads faster than classical simulations.
