Anonymous Thank you so much for your generous and thought-provoking comment. I am glad that the passage on life’s negotiation with noise especially resonated with you — I see this point as central to rethinking the boundary between order and instability. I fully agree with you: we are still only at the very beginning of conceptual understanding of photosynthetic coherence, enzymatic tunneling, biophotons, and many other phenomena that suggest a biology more attuned to quantum physics than we once assumed.
The experimental protocol I proposed is indeed bold, perhaps even visionary — but I believe we need this kind of methodological courage to turn hypotheses into data. The same applies to the question you raise: how is coherence induced? That may be the great mystery. If life manages to sustain it under such hostile conditions, it is because, in some way, noise itself ceases to be an enemy and becomes part of the process.
I believe the strength of quantum biology lies less in providing immediate answers and more in reopening foundational questions — like Schrödinger’s — under a new light. And if we manage to make progress in measuring coherence in humans, we will be one step closer to transforming speculation into applicable science.
Once again, thank you for your attentive reading and for sharing your reflection.
