Frederik Floether: Quantum Computing in Health Care, Made in Basel Care Captains – Insights from Healthcare Innovators

    • Gesundheit und Fitness

Frederick Floether, Chief Quantum Officer at Quantum Basel, takes us on a journey through the unique features of quantum computers, such as qubits and quantum parallelism.

But how does quantum computing apply to healthcare? Join us as we explore the potential applications and implications in disease prevention, diagnosis, and cure. Frederik shares insights into the groundbreaking work at Quantum Basel, situated in the Uptown Basel innovation campus, where they aim to democratize quantum computing and lower entry barriers.

Frederik also introduces the ecosystem at Quantum Basel, emphasizing collaboration with startups and the provision of services like computing power and incubator programs. The discussion covers specific projects, such as Switzerland’s first commercial quantum computer and improving medical image analysis using quantum computing.

The interview also explores the process of mapping existing problems into new quantum approaches, and further delves into the long-term vision of precision medicine, risk predictions, biomarker discovery, and enhanced genomic analysis.

Frederik also discusses the challenges in the quantum field, including demystifying the topic, keeping up with rapid developments, and the need for ongoing education.

The conversation touches on training and education for individuals interested in quantum, emphasizing the multidisciplinary nature of the field and the need for continuous learning.

The podcast concludes with a discussion about an upcoming symposium in March, featuring over 40 speakers from around the world.
