Patrick Ettenhuber serves as a software engineer at Kvantify, a company that enables businesses to harness the potential of quantum algorithms for problem-solving. Patrick has a background in computational quantum chemistry and bioinformatics, he holds a PhD in theoretical chemistry from Aarhus University, and has done seminal in developing algorithms for electronic structure calculations and bioinformatic solutions. When the algorithms stop buzzing in his head, Patrick takes to the waves for some kitesurfing or embarks on adventures to discover new places.
Towards practical molecular electronic structure simulations on NISQ devices with Amazon Braket and Kvantify’s FAST-VQE algorithm
Quantum computing’s potential for computational chemistry is immense, but there are practical limitations. We show how Kvantify’s FAST-VQE algorithm can deliver great accuracy, performance, superior cost-effectiveness, driving us closer to transformative applications in drug discovery.
