The
Russian Quantum Center, the Roscongress Foundation and Rosatom are proud to
announce the third international online discussion within the framework of
«Quantum of the Future».
«Quantum
of the Future» is a series of open sessions dedicated to quantum computing,
quantum communications and complete data security, as well as applications of
quantum technologies in healthcare.
The third discussion, titled «Can
quantum technologies grant us immortality?», will be held 18th June at 5pm Moscow time on the Roscongress
Foundation’s website and YouTube
channel.
Moderating the event will be Ruslan Yunusov, who is heading Rosatom’s project to build a quantum computer in Russia. Viewers will be able to put forward their questions during the stream or in advance of the programme by writing to [email protected]. «Quantum sensors are a very promising technology that is based on the high sensitivity of quantum systems,» explains Ruslan Yunusov, «therefore, with the help of such sensors one can measure the temperature of each individual cell. Five years ago, Harvard scientists proved that the temperature of cancer cells is higher than the temperature of healthy cells. Quantum sensors can identify and help destroy malignant cells without affecting the healthy ones. And this is just one example of implementing quantum technology into healthcare.»
Speakers
at the online discussion:
- Otmar Wiestler, President
of The Helmholtz Association of German Research Centres, the largest scientific
organization in Germany, Chairman and scientific member of the Foundation Board
of the German Cancer Research Centre (DKFZ);
- Gleb Sukhorukov, specialist
in the field of physical chemistry, Professor at Queen Mary University of
London (UK), Professor at Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology, was
named among top-10 world-known scientists of Russian origin by Forbes in 2011;
- Antonio
Malgaroli, Full Professor of Physiology at Vita-Salute San
Raffaele University (Italy), undertakes studies about how the brain works;
- Vittorio
Sebastiano, Assistant Professor at Stanford Medicine (USA), explores
the rejuvenation of the cells;
- David
Verdesi, anthopologist and author of the Superhuman
methodology based on the research of world religions and the latest discoveries
in quantum physics and neurobiology;
- Maksim Ostras, head of
the «M-Granat» project that specializes in developing ultra-sensitive magnetic field
sensors for applications in medicine.
The
programme is being supported by MKR Media and the Friends for Leadership
business initiative in partnership with PGBgroup2.0 and popular science publication
N+1.
The first meetup titled
«Quantum computing: Answers to Global Challenges» occurred
4th June. The participants discussed how our day-to-day lives would soon change dramatically thanks to quantum technology.
The second meetup titled
«Quantum communications: absolutely secured future» occurred 11th
June. World-renowned scientists as well as business associates weighed on the
topic of quantum cryptography and fully protected communication.
Broadcasts
and summary are available on the Roscongress Foundation website by the link.
The fourth discussion, titled «Quantum Technology Markets: Who Is
Investing and Why?» is scheduled for 25th June. The
list of speakers for this discussion is currently being updated and will be
announced in due course on the Roscongress
Foundation website, and the News section of the Russian Quantum Center website.
We also invite you to learn more about the advancement of quantum technology in
Russia and worldwide from the lectures on RQC’s official YouTube channel.
