Consciousness as an Emergent Phenomenon: A Tale of Different Levels of Description

open access: yesEntropy, 2020
One of the biggest queries in cognitive sciences is the emergence of consciousness from matter. Modern neurobiological theories of consciousness propose that conscious experience is the result of interactions between large-scale neuronal networks in the ...

Quantum physics meets biology [PDF]

open access: yesHFSP Journal, 2009
Quantum physics and biology have long been regarded as unrelated disciplines, describing nature at the inanimate microlevel on the one hand and living species on the other hand. Over the last decades the life sciences have succeeded in providing ever more and refined explanations of macroscopic phenomena that were based on an improved understanding of ...

Quantum Physics, Quantum Biology, Quantum Medicine?

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2020
The leading cause and foremost reason for mortality and morbidity in the world is a group known as Noncommunicable Diseases. The best approach to treat them is to evaluate and control the risk factors. There are shared by all these diseases leading to the existence of some meeting points behind all of them.

Binary-FRET reveals transient excited-state structure associated with activity-dependent CaMKII - NR2B binding and adaptation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
FRET can be used to study conformational changes and protein-protein interactions. Here the authors report Binary-FRET for monitoring two FRET reactions, one encoded in the fluorescence lifetime of the donor, another encoded in its anisotropy, and ...

Thermodynamics and Inflammation: Insights into Quantum Biology and Ageing

open access: yesQuantum Reports, 2022
Inflammation as a biological concept has been around a long time and derives from the Latin “to set on fire” and refers to the redness and heat, and usually swelling, which accompanies injury and infection.

Quantum Tunneling-Induced Membrane Depolarization Can Explain the Cellular Effects Mediated by Lithium: Mathematical Modeling and Hypothesis

open access: yesMembranes, 2021
Lithium imposes several cellular effects allegedly through multiple physiological mechanisms. Membrane depolarization is a potential unifying concept of these mechanisms. Multiple inherent imperfections of classical electrophysiology limit its ability to
