Cancer May Behave Like a Quantum System, Columbia Studies Suggest

cancer is quantum

Insider Brief Cancer cells may behave in a way that resembles one of the defining rules of quantum physics, occupying only a limited number of stable states rather than an unlimited range of biological forms, according to Columbia University researchers. The comparison does not mean cancer is driven by quantum effects at the atomic level. […]
