Quantum Biology: A Serious Research Frontier
Quantum biology research, which studies the quantum-driven behaviors of biological systems, has been overlooked by funders and established research communities. However, understanding these phenomena could lead to the development of new drugs and noninvasive therapeutic devices to heal the human body. The lack of experimental verification and a cohesive quantum biology community are some of the reasons why the field is not considered legitimate. Interdisciplinary collaboration is needed to explore the problem, ideally in a quantum biology-focused institute.
