Introductory Physics In Biological Context: An Approach To Improve Introductory Physics For Life Science Students [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We describe restructuring the introductory physics for life science students (IPLS) course to better support these students in using physics to understand their chosen fields. Our courses teach physics using biologically rich contexts.

A Problem with STEM [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Striking differences between physics and biology have important implications for interdisciplinary science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. I am a physicist with interdisciplinary connections. The research group in which I work,

WHITEHEAD´S IDEAS WITHIN SOME ROMANIAN JURIDICAL THINKERS [PDF]

open access: yesChallenges of the Knowledge Society, 2018
Alfred North Whitehead (1861 – 1947) was a mathematician, logician and English philosopher, being the most important representative of the philosophical school of thought known as "process philosophy," which today has found application to a wide ...

Towards physical principles of biological evolution

open access: yes, 2018
Biological systems reach organizational complexity that far exceeds the complexity of any known inanimate objects. Biological entities undoubtedly obey the laws of quantum physics and statistical mechanics.

Droplet Physics and Intracellular Phase Separation

open access: yesAnnual Review of Condensed Matter Physics, 2023
Living cells are spatially organized by compartments that can nucleate, grow, and dissolve. Compartmentalization can emerge by phase separation, leading to the formation of droplets in the cell's nucleo- or cytoplasm, also called biomolecular condensates.

Investigating Biological Matter with Theoretical Nuclear Physics Methods

open access: yes, 2011
The internal dynamics of strongly interacting systems and that of biomolecules such as proteins display several important analogies, despite the huge difference in their characteristic energy and length scales.

From physical to biological individuation

open access: yesProgress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology, 2016
In this paper, we insist on stressing the epistemic and metaphysical difference between individual and individuation, a distinction originally developed by Gilbert Simondon. Individuation occurs in complex physical systems by the coupling (R1) between the system and its outside conditions. As such the system is not well defined by its sole constituents.
