A primer for quantum computing and its applications to healthcare and biomedical research.
Objectives: To introduce quantum computing technologies as a tool for biomedical research and highlight future applications within healthcare, focusing on its capabilities, benefits, and limitations.
Target audience: Investigators seeking to explore quantum computing and create quantum-based applications for healthcare and biomedical research.
Scope: Quantum computing requires specialized hardware, known as quantum processing units, that use quantum bits (qubits) instead of classical bits to perform computations. This article will cover (1) proposed applications where quantum computing offers advantages to classical computing in biomedicine; (2) an introduction to how quantum computers operate, tailored for biomedical researchers; (3) recent progress that has expanded access to quantum computing; and (4) challenges, opportunities, and proposed solutions to integrate quantum computing in biomedical applications.
