  On Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) machines, it has been difficult to realize practical quantum advantage over classical state-of-the-art quantum chemistry methods that we use and develop in our other research projects. To this end, we have recently proposed a new quantum-classical hybrid algorithm that shows some potential for scalability and accuracy even with NISQ machines. 
  We are interested in developing this approach further as a means to potentially demonstrate a quantum advantage in quantum chemistry. We are also actively thinking about quantum algorithms for simulating chemical dynamics.
