- Covers biopolymer conformations, cell membrane mechanics, chemical reaction kinetics and applications to polymerization and molecular motors, electric fields, and action potential propagation.
- Recent years have seen a tremendous growth in the use of ideas and methods from physical science and engineering to obtain a better understanding of biological phenomena and for applications of that understanding to societal needs, ranging from health to agriculture.
- Underlying these efforts are principles from statistical physics that establish the framework for this increasingly popular part of bioengineering.
