CHE 332 Quantum Biology
This is the second course of a two-semester sequence. This course will cover the fundamentals of quantum mechanics and spectroscopy, and their applications in chemical and biological phenomena. In other words, it explores how the strangest aspect of nature is manifested in biology and chemistry. Once the fundamentals are covered, the course will dwell on the latest findings in the interface between biology and quantum mechanics such as in bioenergetics, mind and consciousness, genes, ion channels or photosynthesis.
