What if AI and an emerging new technology called quantum science could save millions of lives from diseases like cancer or pneumonia? In this second part on Healing with Intelligence – we're exploring how quantum science has the potential to transform healthcare by helping doctors to better diagnose, monitor, and treat illness.
We meet a pioneer in quantum science and health care – Sridhar Tayur - the Ford Distinguished Research Chair and University Professor of Operations Management at Carnegie Mellon University's Tepper School of Business. Sridhar explains how quantum science not only creates faster diagnoses and medical analysis by astronomical amounts – it can also create better results. He uses pneumonia diagnosis as a case in point. The discussion highlights the differences between quantum and classical computing, the speed and accuracy improvements in diagnostics, and the potential for future innovations in patient care, powered by quantum science and machine learning.
