Quantum Biology + Computer Science: Photosynthesis, Quantum Coherence & Constructive Noise

 “Nature isn’t classical, dammit, and if you want to make a simulation of nature, you’d better make it quantum mechanical, and by golly it’s a wonderful problem, because it doesn’t look so easy.” — Richard Feynman  Photosynthesis is an amazingly efficient and fast circular process of energy conversion that’s evolved in bacteria and plants overContinue reading “Quantum Biology + Computer Science: Photosynthesis, Quantum Coherence & Constructive Noise”

Tech Essay: Studying Quantum Biological Processes To Improve Quantum Technologies

There are two reference sources for this article: The MIT xPRO Quantum Computing Fundamentals program & the textbook “Quantum Effects In Biology.” Upon first consideration, Quantum Computing and Quantum Biology seem to be very different fields, utilizing the principles of quantum mechanics in different ways. Quantum computing involves using quantum bits or qubits to performContinue reading “Tech Essay: Studying Quantum Biological Processes To Improve Quantum Technologies”

Health + Performance: Optimization With Adaptogens

It’s well documented that genetic expression is sculpted by environment. “A substantial body of research reveals that specific genes can be expressed at different times in an organism’s life. Whether a particular gene is expressed and the degree to which it is expressed depend strongly on the environmental conditions experienced by the organism.” (1) EpigeneticsContinue reading “Health + Performance: Optimization With Adaptogens”

Featured Artwork + Concept: “Decision Tree”

With “Decision Tree” I was inspired by the evolutionary choices of species that leads to different adaptations. The overlapping Cubist style layout in both is an abstraction of overlapping decision trees, expressive of possible paths of one or more species or situations. These are photos I took of actual trees, so in that way thereContinue reading “Featured Artwork + Concept: “Decision Tree””
