Some of the most important mechanisms in biology were invisible when they were first proposed.

For centuries, disease was explained using what people could observe directly: bad air, imbalances, environment. The idea that invisible organisms could cause illness seemed implausible.

In the 19th century, Louis Pasteur followed the evidence anyway. Through careful experiments, he showed that unseen microorganisms drive fermentation, spoilage, and disease.

What made this scientific courage wasn’t bold speculation, but a commitment to take unseen mechanisms seriously when the data demanded it, even before the tools and consensus fully caught up.

Today, germ theory is foundational biology.

Quantum biology is exploring a similar frontier: subtle, hard-to-detect mechanisms operating at scales biology hasn’t traditionally considered. Like germ theory once did, it asks whether life may depend on real processes that are measurable before they are widely accepted.

If history is a guide, exploring such frontiers is not a departure from biology... it’s how biology advances.

How is quantum biology relevant to health?

Full Q&A with @LodesaniA coming soon 👀

As we reflect on 2025, let’s talk about one major milestone: the @QuantumBioOrg lab coming to life!

When people pointed the first telescope at the Moon, the Moon didn’t change.
What changed was what could be seen.

Quantum biology is reaching a similar moment.
Not by rewriting biology, but by building better instruments to expand our understanding.

Sometimes progress begins by looking again.

Europe mini-tour 1/2:

at the wonderful Haus der Kulturen der Welt
(a.k.a., "the pregnant oyster"!),
my public keynote +
the first-ever Quantum Biology Hackathon
(a success involving 29 young researchers world-wide)!

Long live Quantum Biology!

@keerkat_ @QuantumBioOrg @QuantumBioDAO Great logo of the Quantum Biology Institute!!!

[Vera D Aiello @vdaiello1]

Honored to share that I’m a part of the #WCPCCS2025 taking place in Hong Kong this December!
Join me for my lecture & many others for great collaboration about #pediatriccardiology
Can’t wait it and looking forward to seeing all my colleagues around the world at @wcpccs2025 !

🚀 The Quantum Biology Hackathon has begun!

Researchers, technologists, engineers, and more are teaming up to explore experimental strategies, theoretical models, and applications at the intersection of quantum and life sciences.

The event is co-hosted by the Haus der Kulturen der Welt and the @QuantumBioOrg, with @ClariceDAiello on-site in Berlin helping lead the charge.

Let’s build the future of biology, together.

[Quantum Biology DAO @QuantumBioDAO]

The Quantum Biology Hackathon starts tomorrow and it’s not too late to join!

Participants will explore how quantum phenomena like superposition, tunneling, and entanglement might contribute to core biological functions. There’s growing experimental and theoretical evidence that quantum effects play a role in biology; this hackathon invites participants to model, question, and test those possibilities.

There are still spots open. To express interest, email [email protected] and check out the Discord: https://t.co/HttnAeLqOz!

Interested in joining the first-ever quantum biology hackathon? In just 2 days, the @QuantumBioOrg and Haus der Kulturen der Welt (HKW) are launching a global event exploring whether quantum physics might be biology’s best-kept secret.

If you're interested, please email [email protected] — there are still spots available!

This hackathon explores an emerging field that investigates how quantum physics may underpin and optimize fundamental biological processes. It will foster collaboration between physicists, biologists, chemists, computer scientists, engineers, artists, and more to develop experimental strategies, theoretical models, and technological applications that bridge quantum science and the life sciences. How much more interdisciplinary can it get?

When
Teams will meet online and plan their projects from October 24–30, with guidance from regional team leaders. The main hacking sprint will run around the clock on October 31, November 1, and 2.

Where
Discord + Zoom + Berlin
The Quantum Biology DAO’s Discord server (https://t.co/HttnAeLqOz) is hosting one channel per regional team (Africa, Asia, Europe, Middle East, North America, Oceania, and South America).
In Discord, feel free to reach out to the outstanding team leaders or to the co-organizer Pedro Alvarez!

More info
Full details and coordination are happening in the Quantum Biology DAO Discord: https://t.co/HttnAeLqOz

You’re also welcome to contact us or @ClariceDAiello with questions.

P.S. We're still looking for team leaders for Africa, Asia, and North America!
