Quantum Chemistry
Few fields will get value from quantum computing as quickly as chemistry. Even today’s supercomputers struggle to model a single molecule in its full complexity. We study algorithms designed to do what those machines can’t, and power a new era of discovery in chemistry, materials, and medicine.
