The tools for exceeding the classical limits and accessing new information are the same: quantum coherence and correlations. Coherent quantum systems enable interferometric measurements at the nanoscale, while quantum correlations permit exquisite control over multiple interactions by changing the probabilities.
MD/PhD Physician-Scientists are at the forefront of academic medical science. The Berggren Center works closely with UChicago's MSTP Program to create opportunities for MD/PhD students to train in quantum technology laboratories to learn how to create quantum technologies for medical applications. We will engage members the medical and engineering communities in quantum training. The Center will empower students to adopt new ideas and technologies, to translate science to the clinic, and to define the future of medicine.
The Berggren Center seeks to educate medical professionals to use and adopt quantum technology. Our certificate program teaches physicians and medical professionals about state-of-the-art quantum technology and works with them to understand how they and adopt emerging technologies in their practice and to partner with quanutm engineers to design quantum technology for implementation. Biology and quantum science are convergent fields. The Berggren center seeks to accelerate this convergence by driving use-inspired development of quantum sensing modalities and novel medical applications.
