Institute for Quantum Computing welcomes the Times Higher Education Digital Health 2025 summit

Snapshots of IQC

The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) hosted a Times Higher Education Digital Health 2025 summit reception at the Mike & Ophelia Quantum-Nano Centre, where attendees connected with IQC members, learned about health-related quantum research and saw demonstrations of the science of quantum mechanics in action.

The two-day summit was held on the University of Waterloo campus, bringing together a vibrant community of global leaders in health care, academia, government and startups to discuss advancements in health care.
