Quantum in Practice Act

Summary

Expands the Department of Energy's quantum research and training program to explicitly include quantum molecular modeling or simulation and updates the federal definition of "quantum information science." The bill includes legislative findings that highlight potential industry benefits from quantum molecular simulation (for example, advances in fertilizer production, drug design, energy storage, materials, and superconductors) but does not specify new funding or implementation dates.

• Explicitly adds "quantum molecular modeling or simulation" to DOE's list of research and training subjects.
• Updates the federal definition of "quantum information science" by inserting additional statutory language.
• Contains findings that highlight potential industrial and scientific benefits of quantum molecular simulation.
• Focuses on program scope and workforce training rather than direct appropriations or new spending.
• Places responsibility for implementation with the Department of Energy under existing statutory authorities.
• Does not specify new funding, an effective date, or detailed implementation steps.
• Aims to broaden DOE's training pipeline in quantum science to include chemistry and molecular simulation applications.
