Prof. Jenkins recently presented at the BioTechX conference – Europe’s largest bioinformatics gathering – on “Unlocking Peptide Design with Quantum-Enhanced Generative AI”. He described results from a collaboration with ORCA Computing, Sparrow Computing and PSNC where quantum computing was used to enhance generative AI models in the context of vaccine design. Specifically, he and his PhD student, Jonathan Funk, investigated whether the quantum approach outperformed classical methods in designing peptides with a higher likelihood of triggering an immune response by being immunogenic. Notably, they discovered that the quantum-guided model not only outperformed the classical approach but also learned to generate peptides more quickly.
