With £94 million committed by the Treasury towards the second phase of the UK National Quantum Technologies Programme, advancements in quantum technology look set to revolutionise the future of healthcare. From wearable quantum-enabled brain scanners to the development of new drugs using quantum computer simulations, ground-breaking research into the smallest interactions has the potential to make a massive impact in the medical sector.
While the technologies being worked on now are very much in their infancy it is already possible to imagine some of the advances fully-fledged quantum computers may bring to healthcare in the future.
