IonQ has successfully developed a quantum-accelerated computational chemistry workflow in collaboration with AstraZeneca, Amazon Web Services, and NVIDIA. This workflow demonstrates a quantum-classical hybrid computing model that enhances the speed and efficiency of drug development, particularly in the Suzuki-Miyaura reaction. By integrating IonQ's Forte quantum processing unit with NVIDIA's CUDA-Q platform, the research team achieved an end-to-end solution time improvement of over 20 times, reducing the expected runtime from "months" to "days."
