Biophysical Chemistry

Biophysical chemistry is an interdisciplinary field that combines principles of chemistry and physics to understand biological systems at a molecular level. It explores how biomolecules, like proteins and DNA, interact and behave, using techniques from both chemistry and physics. This understanding is essential for addressing complex biological processes, leading to advances in areas such as drug design, genetic engineering, and molecular biology. By integrating knowledge from physical chemistry, biophysics, and related fields, biophysical chemistry provides insights into the structure, dynamics, and functions of living organisms at the atomic and molecular scales.
