Guest Editorial Special Feature on Quantum Biology
Quantum biology is not a new field of study: as the physicists’ work on foundations of quantum theory matured, the question of linking it with the secrets of living organisms drew more and more attention. It was posed as a natural philosophy question as well, exploring the link of quantum randomness with the competing perceptions of the world, idealist and materialist. It also posed a question to what will later become known as systems theory: is reductionism ever warranted in complex systems? These first thoughts on quantum effects as underlying mechanisms of living organisms predate the modern molecular biology revolution.
期刊介绍:
As a result of recent advances in MEMS/NEMS and systems biology, as well as the emergence of synthetic bacteria and lab/process-on-a-chip techniques, it is now possible to design chemical “circuits”, custom organisms, micro/nanoscale swarms of devices, and a host of other new systems. This success opens up a new frontier for interdisciplinary communications techniques using chemistry, biology, and other principles that have not been considered in the communications literature. The IEEE Transactions on Molecular, Biological, and Multi-Scale Communications (T-MBMSC) is devoted to the principles, design, and analysis of communication systems that use physics beyond classical electromagnetism. This includes molecular, quantum, and other physical, chemical and biological techniques; as well as new communication techniques at small scales or across multiple scales (e.g., nano to micro to macro; note that strictly nanoscale systems, 1-100 nm, are outside the scope of this journal). Original research articles on one or more of the following topics are within scope: mathematical modeling, information/communication and network theoretic analysis, standardization and industrial applications, and analytical or experimental studies on communication processes or networks in biology. Contributions on related topics may also be considered for publication. Contributions from researchers outside the IEEE’s typical audience are encouraged.
