Most people have only a limited understanding of quantum tech, and even those with more expertise usually do not associate it with healthcare applications. This field is deserving of more attention, however, as it becomes more impactful, argues Fulbright Scholar Ahmed Zahlan.

NEW YORK - Quantum tech - an extraordinary field interwoven with the enigmatic principles of quantum mechanics - stands at the frontier of a new era, teeming with untapped potential and innovative applications that stretch the boundaries of humanity’s current scientific and technological understanding. The healthcare paradigm, perennially evolving and adapting, is perched on the cusp of this revolutionary wave, gazing towards a future where quantum principles could reshape its foundational aspects.¹ As humanity meticulously traverses into an epoch defined by quantum information science, society finds itself embarking on an explorative journey through a technological landscape where the microcosmic phenomena of particles are more than just scientific curiosities - they are robust tools capable of potentially rewriting the narratives of medical diagnostics treatment, research, and much more. In this unfolding context, one should delve deeper into how quantum tech - with its profound capabilities and challenges - intertwines with the multi-faceted healthcare domain, exploring avenues where the ostensibly abstract quantum world collides with tangible, life-altering medical advancements.

Embarking upon the intricate voyage to comprehend how quantum tech could potentially revolutionize healthcare necessitates an initial pause, a moment to un
