Physical Biology

Physical biology is an interdisciplinary field that applies principles of physics and mathematics to understand biological systems. It explores how physical processes—such as energy transfer, forces, and molecular dynamics—govern the structure, function, and behavior of living organisms at molecular, cellular, and population levels. By quantifying biological phenomena, physical biology helps explain how life operates efficiently and responds to environmental changes, bridging the gap between biology and physics to gain deeper insights into the fundamental mechanisms of life processes.
