Ereckson Middle School seventh graders, Nikhitha Swaminathan and Sri Dhanvi Puli, were recently honored for winning in the Toshiba/NSTA ExploraVision Regional Fair Competition.
The project, "QuantMole: Efficient Determination of Molecular Ground State with VQE," employs the cutting-edge Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) method to accurately determine the ground state energy of molecules. This research has profound implications for drug discovery, emphasizing the stability and behavior of molecules in developing new medications. The team's work highlights the importance of quantum computing in enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of molecular structure optimization, thereby facilitating the creation of safer and more effective drugs.
Ereckson Middle School and Allen ISD are proud of Nikhitha and Sri Dhanvi's outstanding achievement and their contribution to the scientific community.
