<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Sub-theme 6.3. Computational Biology</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Aim</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">The primary purpose of quantum biology is to investigate the life-processes in plants and animals at the micro level.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Description</strong></p><p style="text-align: justify;">This sub-theme focuses on mutation, mutation and quantum tunnelling, enzyme action, quantum nano structure (casimir effect), mathematical modelling, microtubules, quantum network in biology, photosynthesis, quantum computing, and quantum information. It also includes the societal and development impact of quantum biological research outputs.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><a name="_Toc389157736"></a></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Research Areas</strong></p><ul style="text-align: justify;"><li><a name="_Toc389157737"></a> <em>Mutation</em></li></ul><p style="text-align: justify;"><a name="_Toc389157738"></a><em>6.3.2.
