Details

In recent years, the interdisciplinary field of quantum computing has rapidly developed and garnered substantial interest from both academia and industry due to its ability to process information in fundamentally different ways. Healthcare will particularly benefit from quantum computing as it can speed up the drug design and test process, offering new medicines that could save potentially thousands of lives. For drug companies, this would save them millions, in years of drug testing and drug development. Because of its speed and efficient computing power, it could also be able to sequence or analyze whole human genomes much faster than a regular computer. This faster genetic analysis could lead to a tidal wave of consequences, from better genetic screenings for genetic diseases to
more accurate drug screens. Most of all, it will support doctors in taking a perfect decision, therefore analyze and compare studies more quickly.

This event is an annual gathering where businesses, policymakers, and academics come together to discuss important healthcare issues in Europe and beyond.
