Kvantdatorer står på tröskeln till att revolutionera hälsosektorn. Denna presentation tar en djupgående titt på kvantdatorers roll i hälsosektorn, från molekylär nivå till utveckling av nya behandlingar, precisionsmedicin och patientsäkerhet.Men vad är kvantdatorer egentligen, och när kan vi förvänta oss att de kommer påverka vår vardag? Detta föredrag demystifierar kvantdatorer med hjälp av enkelhet, humor och liknelser. Vi utforskar kvantdatorernas potential i utvecklingen av nya behandlingar och kvantdatorernas förmåga att hantera komplexa beräkningar så som molekylsimuleringar. Vi diskuterar också när det kan vara lämpligt att implementera denna banbrytande teknik, inte bara inom industrin utan också ur ett patientsäkerhetsperspektiv - där kvantdatorer utgör mer hot än hopp.

Vården behöver fler effektiva lösningar som hjälper patienterna till bättre hälsa. Därför går Sveriges sju universitetssjukhus med omgivande innovationskontor och inkubatorer in med sin samlade kapacitet i projektet Snabbare Implementering i Svensk Hälso- och Sjukvård (Siish). Målet är att avsevärt förkorta tiden för införandet av innovationer i vården. I presentationen får vi höra erfarenheter och lärorika resultat som hittills kommit från projektet.

Hälsodatavägledningen på halsodata.se ska vägleda innovationsprojekt till att nå sin fulla potential genom att drivas av användningsfall och förhålla sig till juridik, semantik och det befintliga ekosystemet av hälsodata.
