The Wellcome Trust has selected the Cleveland Clinic-IBM Discovery Accelerator to develop proof-of-concept demonstrations of quantum computing for biologic and health applications through the Wellcome Leap Quantum for Bio Challenge.

Wellcome Trust选择了克利夫兰诊所IBM Discovery Accelerator，通过Wellcome Leap quantum for Bio-Challenge开发生物和健康应用量子计算的概念验证演示。

WHY IT MATTERS

为什么重要

Q4Bio by Wellcome Leap, a U.S.- based non-profit organization aiming to accelerate and increase the number of breakthroughs in global health, seeks to co-develop health applications that demonstrate benefit from the use of quantum computers and are expected to emerge over the next three to five years. .

Q4Bio由美国非营利组织Wellcome Leap致力于加速和增加全球健康突破的数量，旨在共同开发健康应用程序，展示量子计算机使用带来的益处，并有望在未来三到五年内出现。 .

In addition to an award for up to $40 million to fund two projects that focus on the manifestation of disease and use of quantum physics to prevent and treat cancer, the team may receive $10 million in challenge prizes for successful, scalable technologies and approaches.

除了获得高达4000万美元的奖项以资助两个专注于疾病表现和使用量子物理学预防和治疗癌症的项目外，该团队还可以获得1000万美元的成功，可扩展技术和方法的挑战奖。

Cleveland Clinic and IBM installed the first quantum system dedicated to healthcare research on the main campus earlier this year, according to Wednesday's announcement.

根据星期三的公告，克利夫兰诊所和IBM今年早些时候在主校区安装了第一个致力于医疗保健研究的量子系统。

Since Cleveland Clinic and IBM announced their intentions to advance biomedical research through high-performance computing, artificial intelligence and quantum computing in 2021, the Cleveland Clinic-IBM Discovery Accelerator researchers have been working on a portfolio of projects that generate and quickly analyze large amounts of data for a wide range of disease-focused research..

自2021年克利夫兰诊所和IBM宣布通过高性能计算，人工智能和量子计算推进生物医学研究的意图以来，克利夫兰诊所IBM Discovery Accelerator研究人员一直致力于开发和快速分析大量项目的项目组合数据用于广泛的疾病研究。。

Deployment of the quantum system was a key milestone in the organizations’ 10-year partnership, said Cleveland Clinic and IBM.

克利夫兰诊所和IBM表示，量子系统的部署是组织10年合作伙伴关系中的一个关键里程碑。

For Q4Bio, the accelerator will focus on protein conformation prediction with quantum computing, which could lead to new insights into how proteins function and interact with other molecules to better understand the manifestation of diseases and develop more effective, targeted therapies.

对于Q4Bio，加速器将专注于使用量子计算进行蛋白质构象预测，这可能导致对蛋白质如何发挥作用以及与其他分子相互作用的新见解，以更好地了解疾病的表现并开发更有效的靶向治疗。

The team will work to develop quantum algorithms and workflows to explore how they could contribute to the creation of universal, scalable methods for predicting protein structures more accurately and quickly.

该团队将致力于开发量子算法和工作流程，以探索它们如何有助于创建通用的，可扩展的方法，以更准确，快速地预测蛋白质结构。

For the second project, Algorithmiq joins the collaborators to create a set of computational tools that aims to explore how quantum computing could assist in the development of photon-activated drugs for cancer.

对于第二个项目，Algorithmiq加入合作者创建一套计算工具，旨在探索量子计算如何帮助开发用于癌症的光子激活药物。

The quantum computing for photon-drug interactions in cancer prevention and cancer treatment will leverage Algorithmiq’s drug discovery platform, Aurora, which uses IBM’s quantum hardware, and Cleveland Clinic’s experience developing drug applications.

用于癌症预防和癌症治疗中光子-药物相互作用的量子计算将利用Algorithmiq的药物发现平台Aurora，该平台使用IBM的quantum硬件，以及Cleveland Clinic开发药物应用的经验。

THE LARGER TREND

更大的趋势

Quantum computing can turbocharge healthcare data analytics, benefitting medical imaging, pathology and more.

量子计算可以涡轮增压医疗数据分析，有益于医学成像，病理学等。

'This technology holds tremendous promise in revolutionizing healthcare and expediting progress toward new cares, cures and solutions for patients,' said Cleveland Clinic CEO Dr. Tom Mihaljevic in a statement announcing the health system's deployment of IBM Quantum System One.

克利夫兰诊所首席执行官汤姆·米哈尔耶维奇博士在宣布卫生系统部署IBM Quantum system One的声明中说：“这项技术在彻底改变医疗保健和加快患者新护理，治疗和解决方案方面具有巨大的前景。

'Quantum and other advanced computing technologies will help researchers tackle historic scientific bottlenecks and potentially find new treatments for patients with diseases like cancer, Alzheimer's and diabetes,' he added.

他补充说：“量子和其他先进的计算技术将帮助研究人员解决历史上的科学瓶颈，并有可能为癌症，阿尔茨海默氏症和糖尿病等疾病患者找到新的治疗方法。

The use of quantum physics to help destroy cancer cells in a study by Kyoto University announced in 2021 used X-rays on tumor tissue containing iodine-carrying nanoparticles, triggering cancer cell death within three days.

京都大学于2021年宣布在一项研究中使用量子物理学来帮助摧毁癌细胞，该研究在含有碘携带纳米颗粒的肿瘤组织上使用X射线，在三天内引发癌细胞死亡。

At the time, researchers said they were able to produce a quantum physics phenomenon inside a cancer cell by generating low-energy electrons close to DNA and inflicting damage difficult to repair, which eventually led to programmed cell death.

当时，研究人员表示，他们能够通过在DNA附近产生低能电子并造成难以修复的损伤，从而在癌细胞内产生量子物理现象，最终导致程序性细胞死亡。

ON THE RECORD

记录在案

When the IBM supercomputer was first deployed at Cleveland Clinic this past March, IBM CEO Arvind Krishna noted how Quantum System One would enable researchers to 'explore and uncover new scientific advancements in biomedical research. By combining the power of quantum computing, artificial intelligence and other next-generation technologies with Cleveland Clinic's world-renowned leadership in healthcare and life sciences, we hope to ignite a new era of accelerated discovery.'.

当IBM超级计算机去年3月首次在克利夫兰诊所部署时，IBM首席执行官Arvind Krishna指出了量子系统如何使研究人员能够“探索和发现生物医学研究的新科学进步”。通过将量子计算，人工智能和其他新一代技术的力量与克利夫兰诊所在医疗保健和生命科学领域的全球知名领导力相结合，我们希望点燃加速发现的新时代。
