• Published a comprehensive review paper on nontrivial quantum events in cancer biology in the Archives of Razi Institute. • Elucidated that proton tunneling within DNA hydrogen bonds induces spontaneous mutations and cancer development. • Presented the possibility of establishing precision medicine and revolutionary drug discovery platforms through the introduction of quantum computing. [Quantum Biology Society] A groundbreaking review paper has been published that elucidates the fundamental causes of cancer from the perspective of quantum mechanics rather than classical molecular biology, and attempts to solve this with quantum computing technology. Recently, a paper titled "Exploring Quantum in Cancer Biology: A Comprehensive Review of Nontrivial Quantum Events" was published in the international journal Archives of Razi Institute, drawing the attention of the academic community. This study, involving a multinational joint research team including Ayesha Ali, comprehensively covers the latest insights combining quantum mechanics with oncology. ■ Quantum Tunneling, the Culprit Behind Cancer-Causing Mutations This study focused on phenomena such as quantum tunneling, quantum coherence, entanglement, and quantum superposition occurring within cancer cells. It reinterprets the complex signal transduction systems and mutation accumulation processes of cancer, which could not be perfectly explained by the linear pathways of conventional molecular biology alone, as quantum physical phenomena. What is particularly noteworthy is the quantum tunneling model. The researchers pointed out that quantum tunneling phenomena, where protons move through physical energy barriers, can occur within the hydrogen bonds connecting the double helix structure of DNA. They explain that this microscopic phenomenon disrupts normal base-pair bonding, resulting in errors in genetic coding, and consequently causing spontaneous point mutations that induce cancer. ■ Quantum Computing, the Future of Precision Medicine and Drug Discovery Beyond elucidating the microscopic quantum events underlying biological phenomena, the researchers emphasized the active introduction of quantum computing, utilizing quantum bits (qubits) and quantum entanglement, into the healthcare domain. Processing the vast biological data related to cancer with the exponential computational power of quantum computers will dramatically reduce processing time and increase the efficiency of diagnostic assistance, enabling the realization of true personalized precision medicine. This study, which analyzed the fundamental onset mechanism of the disease quantum mechanically, is expected not only to present the direction of future oncology research but also to provide a crucial theoretical foundation for building a revolutionary targeted drug discovery platform.
