A cancer cell (nucleus in blue, cellular ‘skeleton’ in green). Scientists have devised nanosensors that can measure the ...

Researchers at the National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST), Japan, and The University of Tokyo, Japan, ...

Traditionally, quantum physics assumes that systems interact weakly with their environment—if at all. This misses out on the complexity of living organisms, which are nothing like isolated systems in ...

In an interesting development, the team at the University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (UChicago PME) has created a protein-based quantum bit (qubit). The group successfully ...

Protons, the positively charged particles that help build every atom in our bodies, are starting to look less like classical billiard balls and more like quantum actors. A growing body of research now ...

A diamond-based quantum sensor has been used to measure magnetic signals from the heart of a living animal for the first time. It is a step towards being able to use quantum devices in ordinary ...
