Associate Professor

Clinical Focus

Medical decision-making, complex systems, biophysics

Research Focus

Dr. Mihelic's research interests involve the biological complexity that originates in the quantum mechanics of the DNA molecule, especially with respect to complex decision-making in multi- agent complex adaptive systems. Dr. Mihelic holds a patent on a multi-agent complexity-related decision-making algorithm (US 8,170,965) that has potential applications in big data analysis, distributed computing, artificial intelligence, enterprise architecture, and biologically-related systems. He has developed a theoretical model of how the DNA molecule functions as a quantum logic processor, and through that model he has predicted and experimentally demonstrated entanglement-based non-local communication between separated cell cultures at biological temperatures. Dr. Mihelic currently is planning research to explore the role of DNA quantum entanglement and decoherence in cancer.
