Quantum biology explores whether quantum phenomena such as coherence, entanglement, and tunnelling influence biological function at the molecular scale. This research challenges purely classical biochemical explanations in selected biological settings.
Our work connects quantum theory to biologically relevant mechanisms, including radical pair spin dynamics and vibrationally assisted electron transfer. By linking physics with life sciences, we aim to advance understanding in areas such as disease mechanisms, diagnostics, and bio-inspired quantum technologies.

Over two decades ago, Bruce Kane proposed that spin-half phosphorus nuclei embedded in a spin-zero silicon substrate could serve as a viable platform for spin-based quantum computing. These nuclear spins exhibit remarkab…

The potential role of spin in biological systems is a primary topic in quantum biology. However, much of this research focuses on electron spin. A recent hypothesis suggests that nuclear spin may be better suited to biol…

The origins of life is a question that continues to intrigue scientists across disciplines. One theory - the iron-sulphur theory - suggests that reactions essential to the synthesis of biological materials got their cata…
