Professor Danna Freedman of the Department of Chemistry presented her research at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS).

Freedman shared her research and insights on quantum chemistry’s ability to unlock access to molecules and revolutionize computing.

“Molecules are inherently tunable,” Freedman said. “Quantum information science is a broad field. Under the quantum information science umbrella, applications such as quantum sensing and quantum internet will have different requirements. What we will really need is ‘designer’ quantum units for these, and molecules have the potential to do this.”
