Book Club

Every week we explore the insight, ideas, strategy… and sometimes outright lunacy, of books that have stood the test of time, books that will change your mind. 

One Day, Will Scientists Cure Cancer With Quantum Computing? – Book Club

We’re reading Michio Kaku’s Quantum Supremacy and asking how quantum computing, CRISPR, and gene editing are set to revolutionize medicine. Can quantum computing help cure cancer, eradicate genetic diseases, and prevent future pandemics?

We start by reading how quantum computing can process vast datasets, providing real-time solutions for disease detection and personalized healthcare. In short, quantum technology could be the key to unlocking medical breakthroughs previously unimaginable.

Next, we discuss CRISPR gene editing, which offers the potential to cure diseases like sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis, and even fight cancer.

We try to understand how gene editing could extend human life by targeting and fixing genetic mutations.

Finally, we explore how these advancements may also help us prevent future pandemics, with early warning systems powered by quantum technology, detecting diseases before they spread.

From improving healthcare systems to eliminating diseases, quantum computing and CRISPR are transforming the future of medicine.

Please enjoy the show.
