The first Brazilian Symposium on Quantum Biology, an online event focused on creating a Brazilian quantum biology community, was attended by 12 influential researchers in the field. The symposium ended with a round table that discussed quantum biology as a new field of science. Among the speakers, Gabriela Lemos (UFRJ) presented the seminar “Entangled photons and their applications” and Francisco Laurindo (USP), the seminar “Cracking the redox of chaperone code in biological systems”.

Organized by Clarice Aiello (UCLA), Jorge Moll (IDOR/Pioneer Science) and Marcelo Sousa (UFC/Bright Photomedicine), other Quantum Bio BR Talks webinars were held to promote quantum biology in Brazil. Watch the videos of the lectures.
