Well, kinda; it just means that the electronic interaction is spin sensitive, i.e. the expected spin-orbit coupling term that spectroscopists have known for a century in atoms, makes a measurable effect also in molecules of the DNA type.
Neurons don't reproduce - do you suppose their DNA/RNA machinery might be adapted to computing and/or memory?
Thanks, Rich
They don't reproduce, but new ones are made from stem cells.

Wow, a 14 atom quantum computer...
How many atoms are there in a strand of DNA?
John
Heaps, lots. Redundancy too. And boo-boos. Wonder we work at all, no?
Grant.

That bit of folk wisdom is also wrong. Nervous tissue cells do = reproduce. The rate is much lower than for skin cells.
