I come from the old era of computing. I started with a clone PC back in the 80s, then upgraded to an IBM PC/AT with 640k RAM and a whopping 10 MB HD. It is still sitting in my closet, and I love to look at it sometimes. Now, 40 years later, I am designing a Cancer Drug Discovery in my back office using a modern PC. Just out of curiosity, I did some research on old drug-discovery systems/methods before PCs and wrote this post. So, from the 1960s to the 1980s, long before tool

As of today, I have quietly moved 478,808 virtual Compounds through a quantum-enhanced drug discovery machine in my back office in Oklahoma. Today I hit a nice milestone on the Citizen Scientist page of QuantumCURE Pro™ and the numbers made me smile, so I’m sharing them. The Raw Numbers Compounds processed (Citizen Scientist): 478,808 Compounds that made it into the Golden List: 30 Hit rate: What does that mean? In industry, typical virtual screening or HTS hit rates ar

Companies like Schrödinger and Atomwise have incredible platforms, but their primary business is selling software and partnering with major pharmaceutical companies. They provide powerful tools and co-discovery services; their partners own most of the downstream pipeline and wet-lab risk. Schrödinger+1 I built QuantumCURE with a different mission: not just to rank molecules, but to actually walk a set of compounds all the way into a wet list I own and can defend . In less t

Let's Dock! It’s been a long, astonishing road since November 2024.That’s when I decided — half out of curiosity, half out of stubbornness — to see if I could connect a quantum random number generator on my desk to a cloud-based drug discovery engine that could actually help find new medicines. I didn’t have a corporate lab, a research team, or venture funding. I still don't although I am looking for some to expand and scale up this cool engine I have created. Back then, ju
