promising applications for quantum computing is in Materials and Chemistry.
With a quantum computer scientists and engineers expect to untangle the
complexity of molecular and chemical interactions leading to the discovery of
new materials and medicines, and model the quantum states of molecules. We will
discuss the status of the applications in this space and share some
recent activity.<span></span></font></span></p>
