Exploring how quantum ideas can inspire liberation, identity and community.
This episode of Physics World Stories features an interview with Jessica Esquivel and Emily Esquivel – the creative duo behind Queer Quest.

- Mental Health professionals also joined Queer Quest, which was officially recognised by UNESCO as part of the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology (IYQ).
Over two days in Chicago this October, the event brought science, identity and wellbeing into powerful conversation.
