A unique quantum effect in biology could be the key to understanding a common marker of Alzheimer's, raising questions about current assumptions of the disease and informing the search for a cure.

Researchers have found that an Alzheimer's drug, donepezil, can induce a safe and reversible torpor-like state in tadpoles of the Xenopus laevis species at room temperature. This 'biostasis ...
