High Q Technologies and Creative Biostructure Announce Strategic Partnership Expanding Global Access to Quantum-Enabled EPR Spectroscopy2.6.2026 15:00:00 CEST | Press release
Collaboration Aims to Accelerate Adoption of EPR Spectroscopy in Structural Biology and Drug Discovery High Q Technologies, a developer of quantum-enabled electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy systems, and Creative Biostructure, a structural biology Contract Research Organization, today announced a strategic partnership to support broader adoption of EPR spectroscopy for studying protein dynamics in pharmaceutical and biotechnology research. EPR spectroscopy is increasingly relevant as drug discovery turns toward disordered, flexible, and disease‑relevant protein systems that cannot be fully understood through static structural methods alone. However, broad adoption of EPR has historically been limited by instrument and workflow complexity, and the need for dedicated technical expertise in experimental design and data interpretation. Leveraging quantum sensor technology, FATHOM® EPR has overcome these challenges. By providing unique measurements of long‑range distances, FA

At the same time, only 7% use the same product configuration rules across every team and system involved in selling and building products, which is critical for reducing margin risk because of siloed functions and data. The report highlights a growing industry reality: while digital transformation
