The document discusses the possibility of entire biological systems becoming entangled in the same way that particles like electrons and photons can become entangled in quantum mechanics. It suggests that some subset of biological elements and synthetic biology could be candidates for experiments to test for quantum behavior in biological materials. One day, it speculates that we might develop a biological computer similar to the human brain that has both quantum computing capabilities and a way to communicate via quantum entanglement and superposition, like teleportation.

If electrons/qubits/photons can be entangled - can whole biological systems be entangled as well?

Current focus of quantum research is towards hi-speed computing and teleportation. Current public
research focuses mainly on building a quantum computer that is faster and is more secure than our
existing system. I am not aware of any secret projects in this area
When we talk about particles, photons, & electrons, we have reached the atomic level and ideally, I feel
there should be no differences between earth elements like the biological matter, minerals, organic, or
non-organic element. Every element is a composition of some identifiable element of the periodic table.

For working on the biological quantum concept, synthetic biology / organic and related molecular
elements may be initially used to experiment with the quantum theory to narrow down to particular bio-
synthetic materials that exhibit quantum behavior. As of day, we have quantum dots, quantum wells, &
quantum wires with specific composites (like carbon) that display and adhere to quantum theory.
Current scope of experiments for entanglement is specified to few non-organic materials only. I feel
biological elements will also have a similar subset that might adhere to quantum theory.
When talking about entire biological systems in an entangled state, I feel we already have an analogy
with our current study with inorganic matter that applies to organic / biological system. A subset of
biological elements might be the candidates for quantum experimentation. Suitable hypothesis,
supporting projects and coordination with the existing quantum researchers can lead to some
breakthrough in the biological quantum theory. Experiments with live biological specimen / animals are
prohibited in most countries. Licenses, & approvals for clinical trials is required while dealing with such
experiments
On the brighter side, we might one day arrive at a biological computer that is similar to our human brain
that has quantum computing capability and also has a mechanism to communicate with far off
entangled pairs / teleport using superposition and entanglement features.
