Science secretary backs five quantum technology hubs in push for UK to transform healthcare and industry

Quantum physics is now at work in semiconductors, MRI brain scanners, lasers and atomic clocks, and the hubs will develop gravity sensors and quantum-enhanced blood tests.Quantum physics is now at work in semiconductors, MRI brain scanners, lasers and atomic clocks, and the hubs will develop gravity sensors and quantum-enhanced blood tests.

“We are at the foothills of where quantum technology is going to take us and that provides a huge opportunity for British science and British research and development,” Kyle told the Guardian from Glasgow before Friday’s announcement. “If we get this right, we can become global leaders, which means not just solving challenges domestically and creating opportunities domestically, but being able to fully exploit the global market as well.

In one project, scientists at UCL are fine-tuning the quantum properties of atomic defects in diamond nanoparticles to develop ultra-sensitive blood tests. The technology allows scientists to draw a blood sample and detect minuscule amounts of proteins or DNA by making them flash like the beam from a lighthouse.

At the University of Birmingham, scientists are exploiting a quantum effect known as superposition to build gravity sensors that detect underground infrastructure. Such sensors could alert utilities companies to gas and water mains where they plan to dig, or help them find their own pipes to repair.
