A research collaboration has explored the effects of nuclear magnetic resonance on the internal clock of cells at different times of day and under oxygen deprivation. Surprisingly, they found that the ...

Quantum effects are no longer confined to ultra-cold chips and vacuum chambers. For the first time, researchers are deliberately engineering living cells so that they behave like quantum bits, hinting ...

Researchers have discovered how certain photosynthetic bacteria use a sophisticated quantum mechanism to increase their ...

Researchers have demonstrated that light-sensitive proteins can function as quantum sensors and respond to radio waves, ...

The effects of quantum mechanics - the laws of physics that apply at exceedingly small scales - are extremely sensitive to disturbances. This is why quantum computers must be held at temperatures ...

“I’m not saying it’s all true,” says Christoph Simon, a physicist at the University of Calgary in Canada. “I’m just saying it is not crazy to look for it.” He is talking about the possibility that ...

Q4Bio aims to accelerate development of quantum algorithms for healthcare that can run on quantum computers expected within three to five years. Teams were required to run large‑scale demonstrations ...

A century ago, physicists laid the foundation of quantum mechanics. Today, with greater control of quantum systems, scientists are making major leaps in quantum computing, quantum gravity and more, ...

The National Academies will host a workshop on the research and development needs to advance biological applications of quantum-enabled sensing and imaging technologies. The workshop will bring ...
