Chronobiology Meets Quantum Biology: A New Paradigm Overlooking the Horizon?

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Biological processes and physiological functions in living beings are featured by oscillations with a period of about 24 h (circadian) or cycle at the second and third harmonic (ultradian) of the basic frequency, driven by the biological clock.
