Saudi Researchers Use Quantum Computing To Design More Efficient Airplanes
To build its quantum expertise, KAUST has partnered with Zapata Computing, a quantum software company based in Boston, Massachusetts.
It’s estimated that air travel produces roughly two percent of all greenhouse gas emissions. That alone is a good enough reason to explore innovative designs and create more efficient airplanes, but there’s also the fact that airlines operate on very slim margins, so every bit of fuel they manage to save can go a long way in helping them make more profit.
While computers have been helping engineers and designers optimize the aerodynamic properties of airplanes for decades, researchers at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) are the first to explore the absolute cutting edge of what is currently possible in science and engineering by using quantum computing.
Unlike regular computers, which can, at the most fundamental level, represent only two states using transistors (0 = off, 1 = on), quantum computers can be in a 1 or 0 quantum state, or in a superposition of the 1 and 0 state, which essentially means that they can be on and off at the same time. This allows them to represent all possible system states simultaneously, massively speeding up certain specialized computations.
To build its quantum expertise, KAUST has partnered with Zapata Computing, a quantum software company based in Boston, Massachusetts. Zapata will provide its Orquestra toolset, which promises to greatly simplify the process of conducting research in quantum computing.

“Quantum computing is still very novel, but it’s going to be a truly disruptive technology that will provide enormous cross-industry opportunities,” said Matteo Parsani, Assistant Professor of Applied Mathematics and Computational Science at KAUST. “Building a knowledge base of quantum expertise at KAUST in the interdisciplinary field of computational fluid dynamics can only be a good thing both for the university and for the Kingdom.”
The potential of quantum computing to accelerate progress the same way traditional computers have is truly immense, but the technology is still in its infancy, and it may take researchers some time to produce useful results. Hopefully, the team at KAUST will be able to design more efficient airplanes taking us further in a cleaner fashion.

UAE-Based Hupe Unveils 3-Stage Health Optimization Program
The platform offers a strategic, personalized approach to wellness combining cutting-edge diagnostics with expert guidance.
Hupe, a UAE-based health optimization platform, has introduced its comprehensive 3-Stage Program — a strategic, personalized approach to wellness that combines cutting-edge diagnostics with expert guidance and state-of-the-art health technology.
This program is designed to move beyond conventional healthcare, which often uses a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, Hype offers its members a structured yet flexible system that enhances both physical and mental performance while proactively addressing potential health risks.
A New Era Of Personalized Health
Stage 1: Discovery
A Hupe user’s journey begins with in-depth diagnostic testing, covering over 100 blood biomarkers, food allergies, and intolerances. Members also consult an Integrative Medicine Doctor, who conducts a detailed health assessment. These insights form the foundation for a personalized Health Insights Program, setting the stage for the next phase.
Stage 2: Personalization
With a tailored Health Insights Program in place, members receive expert guidance from a dedicated team of specialists, including Integrative Medicine Doctors, Clinical Nutritionists, Mindset Coaches, and Sports Medicine Experts.
Depending on individual needs, advanced diagnostics — such as DNA analysis, gut microbiome profiling, hormonal assessments, mycotoxin screening, and DEXA scans — may be integrated. Continuous glucose monitoring and wearable health devices feed real-time data into the Hupe App (for iOS and Android), offering a dynamic roadmap to optimized wellbeing.
Stage 3: Optimization
The final phase is a 12-month membership designed to maintain and build on the progress made in Stage 2. The customized approach allows members to continually enhance their health, extend longevity, and perform at their peak, backed by expert support and a wealth of data.
“Hupe’s 3-Stage Program is designed for those who expect more than a generic health plan — they want precision, personalization, and measurable results,” says Sami Malia, Hupe’s founder. “I created Hupe out of my own frustrations. As a former C-suite executive battling Stage 3 cancer and chronic health issues, I struggled to find a healthcare provider that looked beyond symptoms to address the root cause. So, I spent two years researching the best diagnostic tests, laboratories, and medical experts worldwide to bring them together under one roof”.

Moving Beyond Traditional Healthcare
Unlike conventional medicine, which usually focuses on treating symptoms, Hupe’s proactive model identifies potential risks and optimizes health before problems arise. In addition, because every Hupe member receives a customized health strategy tailored to their unique biology, lifestyle, and goals, guesswork is eliminated, ensuring each plan aligns precisely with an individual’s physiology and genetics.
