Modeling the spin physics of physiological regulation: a quantum information/sensing approach

Abstract

Modeling the spin physics of physiological regulation: a quantum information/sensing approachThe goal of this proposal is to theoretically tackle the problem of how the coherent spin-mediated modality of biosensing can be formulated in the language of quantum information processing. The first case under theoretical study will be spin-mediated reactive oxygen species regulation as recentlyexperimentally reported. The long-term vision is unveil the spin physics model in order to best devise practical quantum control strategies to be subsequently implemented in a physiological nanomonitoring platform. Such a platform, built on a chip and eventually implanted in human subjects, will impart custom electromagnetic radiation to strongly influence the spin phenomena of interest and thus regulate physiology. Future experiments will be conducted at the Quantum Biology Tech (QuBiT) Lab at UCLA.
