The Quantum-Enabled Predictive Preclinical NAMs for Toxicity and Safety (QuSAFE) Challenge, a collaboration between the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and NASA, advances quantum-enabled sensing for in vitro NAMs, such as organoids and microphysiological systems (MPS), to improve drug safety while reducing animal use.<\/p>\n

In vitro NAMs, such as organoids and microphysiological systems (MPS), can generate human-relevant data for drug development and safety evaluation. However, conventional assays and imaging are often noisy, invasive, and not sensitive enough. As a result, weak, early, and low-abundance biological signals can go undetected, and destructive measurements make it hard to monitor dynamic processes over time. Quantum-enabled sensing approaches can offer ultra-high sensitivity, improved signal-to-noise performance, and nanoscale resolution, overcoming detection and measurement limitations that today\u2019s approaches can\u2019t reach.<\/p>\n

The NIH-NASA QuSAFE Challenge directly supports NASA\u2019s Biological and Physical Sciences<\/a> Division, addressing the need for advanced detection methods that work beyond traditional labs.<\/p>\n

By leveraging recent advances in sensor-development research communities, the challenge enhances NASA\u2019s space exploration capabilities and benefits science both in space and on Earth.<\/p>\n
