Cleveland Clinic & IBM debut new quantum simulation workflow

Blog summary: - A joint Cleveland Clinic-IBM research team simulated the electronic structure the 303-atom miniprotein Trp-cage. - Accurate electronic structure calculations on classical computers become increasingly challenging as system size increases. A workable quantum approach could unlock a range of industry applications. - The method involves breaking the molecule into clusters, and using quantum compute to simulate the most complex clusters. - In principle, the hybrid workflow can scale.
