Aims & Scope Full scope →
in quantio is a fully open-access, peer-reviewed journal publishing high-quality research on the quantum mechanical aspects of biological and biochemical systems. We welcome original research articles, review articles, and perspectives that illuminate how quantum phenomena — including coherence, tunneling, and entanglement — operate in living systems, from the molecular to the organismal scale.
The journal operates under Nature Portfolio editorial standards with dedicated expert handling. All accepted work is published under Creative Commons CC BY 4.0.
