LIFE'S QUANTUM COMPUTING New research from Howard University and researcher Philip Kurian suggests that life on Earth has used quantum computing- sensing, information processing, responding and learning- to process almost as much information as the universe is theoretically capable of. Kurian's previous research looked at tryptophan in the cytoskeleton of living organisms and its ability to perform superradiance. The benzene ring of tryptophan can capture a photon of light and emit it at a lower
