Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The discovery of the quantum properties of water and their origins in the interactions between electromagnetic fields and condensed matter provided a new perspective for investigating the detailed nature of life and its thermodynamics. Highlighting the relationship between the coherent and the incoherent fraction of water, one responsible for life (negentropy) and the other for the displacement of free energy, it is now possible to understand the mutual exchange between coherent and incoherent sides of water and the emergence of life from such a mutual game. Early applications of such knowledge in biomedical sciences are encouraging and they suggest that the secret of life lies in this mutual game. The aim of the present Special Issue is to collect and classify the findings of both biochemical and biomedical applications, from the occurrence of electric currents in water due to the complex dynamics of the Liboff–Zhadin effect, to evidence of the influence of cyclotron frequencies in the maturation of cells, as well as in the modulation of the antibiotic resistance of bacteria and the malignancy in cancer proliferation. Additionally, another aim is to correlate such unexpected results with the fundamentals of water and its interaction with non-ionizing radiation. Paraphrasing Albert Szent Györgyi, it is time to pay attention to the only two matrixes of life that are not considered by classical, natural sciences: water and electromagnetic fields!

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
