This research paper by Alfredo Iorio discusses the application of the Modified Poisson-Boltzmann equation and effective action approach to analyze quantum effects influencing DNA condensates. It also delves into the codimension-2 Casimir energy and outlines the strategy employed in a numerical study. Key results and conclusions highlight the implications of these findings. This work contributes to the understanding of quantum mechanics in biological systems and presents a framework for future research in biophysics.
