The goal of the Journal of Applied Quantum Biology is to offer a free, open source journal that:

Publishes research from the field generated by pracitioners
Publishes research from labs that other journals aren't ready for

Medicine Needs This Change.

The academic research showing that the human body operates not just as a biochemical system, but as a quantum biological one governed by light, electromagnetic fields, circadian rhythms, and other biophysical processes is in high growth mode across labs and graduate schools all over the world.

However, medicine, including functional medicine and naturopathy, has barely begun to apply these principles, let alone measure them.

There are clinicians who are already applying these principles with patients, tracking outcomes and seeing results that conventional frameworks struggle to explain. The IAQB has a program that trains practitioners in the methodology of Practice Based Research.

But there is nowhere to publish this evidence.

The Implementation Gap in Quantum Biology Research

No peer-reviewed journal currently exists for applied quantum biology, the practical application of these principles. That means:

Practitioners with compelling clinical findings have no credible venue to publish
Outcome data that could reshape patient care is going uncaptured
Without a dedicated platform to disseminate results, this field of medicine stays on the fringe

In medicine, if it isn't published, it isn't real. Peer review is how a clinical approach moves from "promising" to "I will implement this". Without a dedicated journal, practices as simple as regulating circadian rhythms will not become standard care.

The New Platform We Are Building

The Journal of Applied Quantum Biology is a peer-reviewed, open-access publication launched by the Institute of Applied Quantum Biology (IAQB), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to translating and disseminating research related to the clinical application of quantum biologic principles.

Every article will be freely available to every reader, everywhere: no paywalls, no institutional subscriptions.

The journal is built with the goal of supporting:

1. Emerging research from authors looking at light, frequency, magnetism, sound or other quantum effects in human health.

2. Results from Practice-Based Research Networks (PBRNs), global networks of clinicians, including practicing physicians and integrative health professionals who are trained to design and conduct their own practice-based research, looking at how this science is implemented and disseminated across diverse populations around the world.

Where We Are Right Now: Tremendous Behind The Scenes Work

We are assembling our founding editorial board and designing our publishing infrastructure to reach our runway to the inaugural issue. It's a lot of work, and we need your help.

We need the funding to build it right.

Your gift today funds:

Editorial staff to manage recruitment of the editorial board, submissions and peer review
Open Journal Systems (OJS) platform setup and hosting
DOI registration so every article is permanently citable
Indexing applications to PubMed, SCOPUS, and the Directory of Open Access Journals
PBRN submission support so practitioners can get publication-ready
Launch communications to put this journal on the public map

Our goal: $150,000

This campaign covers Phase I of getting the Journal of Applied Quantum Biology to its first call for submissions in 2027.

This is a founding investment.

You are supporting the creation of a new niche journal that fulfills a recognized gap in the field of late stage translational quantum biology research.

Join the Journal Founders.

The practitioners, organizations, and donors who support this campaign will be recognized as founding supporters of a journal that will still be publishing applied quantum biology research a century from now.

Help us build the evidence base for a new field of medicine.

Individual Donors:

$25 — Reader You believe science should be open to everyone. Your gift helps keep every article in this journal free and accessible to researchers, practitioners, and patients worldwide.

$100 — Contributor You're investing in the future of a new field. Your gift funds the technical backbone that makes rigorous peer-reviewed publishing possible.

$500 — Advocate You understand that applied quantum biology research needs a dedicated home. Your gift helps get this journal indexed in the major research databases where it will be found, cited, and built upon.

$1000 — Patron You're funding the people who make it work: the editorial staff who manage submissions, coordinate peer review, and ensure every published article meets the highest standards.

Corporate Donors:

$2,000 — Mission Sponsor ⭐ At this level, you are recognized by name on the journal's founding supporters page — a permanent record of the people who believed in this vision before the first article was published,

$6,000 — Launch Sponsor ⭐⭐ Named recognition on the journal's founding supporters page, acknowledgment in the inaugural issue, and an acknowledgment across all our platforms.

$10,000 — Founding Sponsor ⭐⭐⭐ You are among the small group whose generosity enabled this journal to exist. Named recognition on the journal's founding supporters page, acknowledgment across IAQB & QBC platforms and recognition as a Founder Sponsor in future institutional materials. There are a limited number of these positions available.

$50,000 — Journal Founder ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Your organization is a co-founder of the Journal of Applied Quantum Biology and will be recognized as such across all material, communication and platforms, including the inaugural edition when it is published.

Phase I: Help Launch The Journal of Applied Quantum Biology

The first peer-reviewed publication dedicated to translating quantum biology from the laboratory into clinical practice—and from clinical practice back into research.
