Researchers have developed a method to perform codon optimization for drug development using thermodynamic hardware, which leverages thermal fluctuations for computation. This approach, applied to the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, demonstrated comparable optimization quality to existing methods but with an estimated energy saving of six orders of magnitude compared to GPUs. The study, which includes open-source code, marks the first concrete pharmaceutical application mapped to this novel hardware. AI
