Breast cancer screening has reached a transformative moment where artificial intelligence is proving to be the ideal “second reader” alongside human radiologists. A groundbreaking prospective study involving 24,543 women demonstrated that AI-assisted mammography screening achieved a 13.8% increase in cancer detection rates compared to traditional radiologist-only screening. This breakthrough represents one of the most significant…

The pharmaceutical industry faces a daunting challenge: developing life-saving drugs takes an average of 10-15 years and costs over $2 billion per medication brought to market. Traditional computational methods, while advanced, hit fundamental limitations when modeling the quantum-level interactions that govern how drugs work in the human body. However, a revolutionary fusion of quantum computing…
