Summary
The Quantum for Health Act modifies the National Quantum Initiative Act to explicitly include social benefit, health, and workforce development goals. It expands the range of organizations involved—adding nonprofit research groups and the Department of Health and Human Services to quantum advisory bodies—and requires research centers to increase outreach to underrepresented students. The changes aim to ensure quantum research supports public health, creates jobs, and is more inclusive.
