A Quantum Leap in Socially Responsible Technology

The rapid progress in the area of quantum technologies (QT) promises an economic boost, new breakthroughs in science, and novel solutions to global challenges. For years, TUM and the Munich region have been a hub for innovation and research in quantum technologies. This research is now complemented by a flagship project hosted by the newly established Quantum Social Lab at the TUM Think Tank. Supported by the BMBF with a grant totaling 1.9 million euros, the project "QuantWorld" focuses on the future of responsible technology development by making quantum technologies understandable to people where they will impact their daily work. The project integrates social aspects into the world of quantum technologies and takes new methodological approaches by involving artists in knowledge dissemination, making quantum technologies perceptible.

    An artful approach to quantum applications in medicine

    As part of the seminar “Quantum Social Lab: Art-Driven Innovation with Quantum Technologies” in cooperation with XPANSE, students of different disciplines developed projects showcasing challenges regarding quantum technologies and transferring them into art projects. One project was chosen to be part of XPANSE. This year's winner pitch has been the “Medical Quantum Wonderland”, an Alice in Wonderland inspired installation that playfully conveys how quantum properties can be leveraged for tumor detection and creates a broader vision of quantum applications for the future of medicine.
