IBM simulates complex protein using quantum systems

[SlowSocket]

IBM says it has successfully simulated a biologically meaningful protein structure using a combination of quantum and classical supercomputers. Researchers believe this could eventually improve drug discovery and molecular analysis. The company is presenting it as another sign that quantum systems are moving closer to practical scientific applications.
