We use our arms and legs every single day of our lives, making us incredibly dependent on them for our day-to-day tasks. That being said, there are over 2 million people in the United States that suffer from limb loss, or the loss of function within a limb. …

Re-Inventing Concrete Production to Reduce Carbon Emissions In the time you’ve read this sentence, 317 tons of concrete have been produced. Current State of Concrete Production: Concrete is the second-most widely used substance on the planet with 4.4 billion tons produced each year. The production of each ton of concrete emits 0.93 tons of carbon…

Variational Quantum Eigensolver — Quantum Chemistry — One of quantum computing’s BIGGEST applications is within the science of chemistry. Quantum chemistry is a subsection of physical chemistry that utilizes the rules and laws of quantum mechanics. Chemical simulations through the use of quantum systems hold an immense amount of power and plausibility, largely due to the ability…

Quantum Approach to Search Algorithms — One of the biggest reasons quantum computing is such a popular technology is due to the way it redesigns our entire understanding of classical computing. It fundamentally runs on the theories of quantum physics in contrast to the classical approach to modern computing. This means that quantum computers open the…

Leveraging Linear Algebra and Quantum Mechanics to Understand Quantum Computing — The introduction of classical computers into modern society was a miracle. The thought of being able to pull out a book-sized machine that can communicate with anybody around the globe and access the bizarre world of the internet is pretty insane. …

Applying Quantum Information Theory with Qiskit — I’ve heard the word ‘quantum’ dozens of times throughout my life, but never gave it a second thought. It sounded sick but I was always way too scared to dive into the math and physics of it all to realize what I was missing out on. A couple of weeks…

Fragmented… Inefficient… Sporadic… These are all terms that describe what current healthcare records look like right now. Every medical practice has different Electronic Medical Record (EMR) systems that are unable to communicate with each other. Want to send healthcare medical data to another hospital? Great… export the data from this…

The next revolution of the internet — 1989 — the year in which the first iteration of the World Wide Web (WWW) was developed, Web 1.0. 2004 — the year in which the second iteration of the World Wide Web (WWW) was developed, Web 2.0. With each iteration came a new innovation, a new redefinition of our…

I remember sitting on the couch with my dad while he was watching the news. There was some kid who became a multi-millionaire by investing in Ethereum and it caught my attention. At this point, Ethereum has turned from a cryptocurrency to a buzzword. …
