Quantum physics meets biology.
Quantum physics and biology have long been regarded as unrelated disciplines, describing nature at the inanimate microlevel on the one hand and living species on the other hand. Over the past decades the life sciences have succeeded in providing ever more and refined explanations of macroscopic phenomena that were based on an improved understanding of molecular structures and mechanisms. Simult...
متن کاملWhen cell biology meets theory
Cell biologists now have tools and knowledge to generate useful quantitative data. But how can we make sense of these data, and are we measuring the correct parameters? Moreover, how can we test hypotheses quantitatively? To answer these questions, the theory of physics is required and is essential to the future of quantitative cell biology.
متن کاملEditorial: When Physics Meets Biology; Biomechanics and Biology of Traumatic Brain Injury
We have launched this special topic to focus on the critical relationships between physical forces, biomechanics, and biological responses in traumatic brain injury (TBI). Understanding the precise connection between physical force(s) and biological response(s), the " physical to biological coupling " is essential for developing high fidelity models in experimental TBI, for designing better pro...
متن کاملCrowd behavior analysis: A review where physics meets biology
Although the traits emerged in a mass gathering are often non-deliberative, the act of mass impulse may lead to irrevocable crowd disasters. The two-fold increase of carnage in crowd since the past two decades has spurred significant advances in the field of computer vision, towards effective and proactive crowd surveillance. Computer vision studies related to crowd are observed to resonate wit...
متن کاملBiology meets physics: Reductionism and multi-scale modeling of morphogenesis.
A common reductionist assumption is that macro-scale behaviors can be described "bottom-up" if only sufficient details about lower-scale processes are available. The view that an "ideal" or "fundamental" physics would be sufficient to explain all macro-scale phenomena has been met with criticism from philosophers of biology. Specifically, scholars have pointed to the impossibility of deducing b...
