Personalized Medicine Through Quantum Computing

Abstract

This chapter explores the transformative intersection of quantum computing and healthcare, particularly in the realm of personalized medicine. The amalgamation of quantum computing and healthcare has ushered in a new era where the unique genetic profile of individuals can be leveraged to craft highly tailored medical treatments. Traditional computing methods often fall short in managing the immense complexity of genetic data, necessitating a paradigm shift. Quantum computing, with its unprecedented computational capabilities, especially in quantum machine learning, emerges as a revolutionary technology to decipher intricate genetic patterns and streamline the development of personalized treatment approaches. The chapter delineates the objectives of personalized medicine, emphasizing its pivotal role in enhancing treatment efficacy, minimizing adverse effects, tailoring preventive strategies, facilitating drug discovery, and harnessing quantum advantages.
