Moderna and IBM Scientists Have Collaborated to Demonstrate the Use of Quantum Computing to Predict mRNA Structures

According to a new paper posted on the pre-print server ArXiv, researchers from Moderna and IBM Quantum have collaborated to demonstrate the use of quantum computers to predict the mRNA (messenger RNA) secondary structures. The study suggests that quantum computing is approaching a utility-scale capability for solving real-world problems. In this research, the researchers utilized IBM Eagle and Heron quantum processors to tackle the issue of predicting mRNA structure.
