Do you have any specific aspects/topics in mind that you want to know
regarding your query? For me, this seems like a very broad subject.
Please understand that the accuracy of your query can help in
pinpointing and delivering the exact answer that you want.

Are you looking for current instances? Or are you just exploring
possibilities (like in Star Trek etc..)

<The relation of neutrinos to biology is a hypothesis that has been
put forward by Archimedes Plutonium. He explains his hypothesis as ‘My
biogenesis theory has two parts to it. (One) that particles
such as the photon are complex DNA springs already, and that 1/2 of a
photon is a neutrino just like splitting a DNA down the middle. Only
the photon DNA is perfect DNA. And (second) these cosmic particles
have
this enormous energy 10^17 MEV to convert that perfect DNA when
stopped, rest massed, convert it into living less-than-perfect DNA
resulting in a new living creature.’ 

The links given below lead to more detailed explanations of the
hypothesis.>

Dear belindalevez-ga,
Thank you so much! I have been working on a neutrinos project for my
high school biology class for this "cutting edge science project" but
my teacher said that unless I find some way to relate biology with
neutrinos, that I would have to abandon the project! You saved my
life! Thank you!
Sincerely, thankfully, and greatfully, cougar43-ga

P.S. If I could tip you $100, I would!

The answer by belinda may be marvelous. It is way over my head. Unless
the understanding of neutrinos has changed recently, neutrinos of all
types very rarely react with matter, so a trillion neutrinos per
second passing though the human body continuosly for a lifetime rarely
produces a harmful effect.  Neil

Archimedes Plutonium is a well-known usenet poster, and it might be
worth noting that some of his theories may not be accepted by some
members of the scientic community. For example, Mr. Plutonium has
propounded once or twice the theory that the universe is a giant
plutonium atom,  http://www.newphys.se/elektromagnum/physics/LudwigPlutonium/File001.html
, a theory which, to the best of my knowledge, is not entirely in the
mainstream of contemporary physics thought.

I suppose if you're in high-school that is a good age to learn the sad
fact that one cannot always trust everything one reads on the web.
Instead, one must learn to think critically and to evaluate the
accuracy of one's sources. For example, generally peer-reviewed
scientific articles in the literature and major textbooks or
monographs that rely on them are more reliable than articles in the
popular press or web pages.

For the answerer: Do you agree with Mr. Plutonium's theories? Do you
think his theories have ever been cited in a peer-reviewed article?
Can you find a single scientist anywhere in the world who has ever
concurred with any of Mr. Plutonium's analysis of any scientific
theory?

I'm still not sure if both questioner and answerer are not both
kidding. If you're both kidding, I apologize for not getting the joke;
but I've seen non-scientists believe theories not less curious than
Archimedes Plutonium's.

For the sake of completeness, then, let me quote some short excerpts
from the links supplied by answerer and from Mr. Plutonium's website
in general:

Quotations from the former include:

"The energy of the highest cosmic rays have the quantized energy to
form
blue green algae organisms as soon as they smack the surface of water"

" In the far future the accelerators are used to pin down the theory
that a photon is 2 neutrinos and that a photon is perfect DNA."

"First life on Earth 16 billion years ago (age of Thorium Atom 
Totality 20.2 billion years ago)"

Other comments on the same website

http://www.newphys.se/elektromagnum/physics/LudwigPlutonium/

"The observable universe is the space of the last 6 electrons of
231Pu"

"in a superdeterministic universe nothing happens but what is willed
and fated to happen by the 231PU Atom"


"You see, I know chlorophyll is green and can look up its chemistry as
well as anyone else. I am asking why, why is chlorophyll green? And
the
answer I get is that chlorophyll is green because photosynthesis
inside
the blackbody cavity of 5f6 of 231Pu must have a wavelength/frequency
of the color of green. If it were a Astatine Atom Totality, then the
circumference and diameter would be different causing the
wavelenght/frequency of photosynthesis burning to give a different
color for plants."


"I herald the day when astronomers come forth and show evidence that
one pulsar is an exoplanet of some star system. And once that
discovery
is confirmed, then obviously what remains is the clear realization
that
the pulsing radio signals must be aliens.  The fact that neutron stars
was a propaganda ploy by stupid scientists is not that important, but
what is of immense importance is that this pulsar must be Aliens
communicating."
