Shaping the Future of Healthcare: The Potential of Quantum Computing in Medical Research

Abstract

The field of quantum computing and healthcare is rather perspective, and it may resolve the issues unresolvable with the use of the traditional methods of computing. This paper will be aimed at discussing the potential impacts that quantum computing can have in the healthcare industry and precisely, the ways in which the technology can be applied when it comes to drug discovery,genetic analysis and disease modeling. We revisit the previous literature which has taken into account the development of quantum algorithm and its promise of contributing to the improvement of healthcare through its potential in highly enhancing precision medicine and reducing timeline of drug development. The work implies theoretical analysis and comparative study of the case scenarios of the models of the application of quantum computing to the sphere of health. We had calculated that quantum computers will outperform classical computation in complex biological simulation and pattern recognition that are the gateways to new healthcare approaches. Although this potential is huge, challenges are related to quantum algorithms optimization, error correction, and hardware difficulties. The conclusion demonstrates that interdisciplinary research provides the fine explanation of gap between quantum computing and medical application existing and hence innovation is needed in both the fields. Such keywords can be medical research, disease modeling, drug discovery, genetic research, precise medicine, quantum computing, healthcare innovation.
