Can Biology be Quantum? Also... Dancing Raisins
from The Hyperthesis Hosted by Pheely Chitnelawong, Patrick O'Brien, and Liam Farrell
Join the Pheely, Liam, and Patrick for episode 82 of The Hyperthesis podcast! In this episode we discuss the field of Quantum biology which proposes that certain functions in living organisms may only be explained through quantum mechanics. Some particular examples that are covered include our sense of vision and smell, enzyme catalysis inside of the cells of organisms, and the ability for birds to detect magnetic fields through quantum entanglement. Before this, we discuss a paper that studies raisin dynamics in a carbonated beverage (yes, we know this sounds weird), and after we end the episode with some history about biological taxonomy.
