Abstract: This paper is devoted to constructing a quantum version of the famous KP hierarchy, by deforming its second Hamiltonian structure, namely the nonlinear $hat{W}_{infty}$ algebra. This is achieved by quantizing the conformal noncompact $SL(2,R{)}_k/U(1)$ coset model, in which $hat{W}_{infty}$ appears as a hidden current algebra. For the quantum $hat{W}_{infty}$ algebra at level $k=1$, we have succeeded in constructing an infinite set of commuting quantum charges in explicit and closed form. Using them a completely integrable quantum KP hierarchy is constructed in the Hamiltonian form. A two boson realization of the quantum $hat{W}_{infty}$ currents has played a crucial role in this exploration.
