What is On the Possibility of Large Upconversions and Mode Coupling between Frohlich States and Visible Photons in Biological Systems about?

At least two significant roles for large scale quantum coherence in living systems have been suggested: Herbert Fr\"{o}hlich's coherent excitations of nonlinearly coupled ensembles of large polarizable molecules, with frequencies in the microwave region, and Fritz Popp's coherent visible photon emission arising from metabolically active cells. The large difference in frequencies has made it difficult to see these two phenomena as being linked. Here a case is made for a potentially large coupling between these modes, and suggestions are made for the biological roles played by these coherent excitations.
