The advance of quantum technology has been remarkable, and quantum biology has come under the spotlight again in these last few years. Under these circumstances, quantum life science has been established. In this article, we defined quantum life science as being composed of life science, quantum science, and quantum technology. We mainly discussed the present and future possibilities of quantum life science. The momentum for quantum life science has been accelerated all over the world. We tried to introduce promising researches and the Japanese government’spolicy for quantum life science. We also introduced quantum information science, which is related to quantum life science genuinely. In the last part, we discussed that what connection between quantum and life is. We look forward to the future of the new field of quantum life science.
