We employ advanced methodologies and theoretical frameworks from physics to address complex biological problems.
Our investigations cover diverse scales, ranging from quantum biological phenomena and molecular interactions to cellular mechanics and the physics of tissue organization. We maintain strong ties with the Biological Physical Sciences Interdisciplinary Network (BPSInet), engaging in numerous cross-disciplinary partnerships that bridge physics and biology to explore fundamental biophysical questions. Additionally, we serve as a key hub for the Physics of Life UK Network (PoLNET), playing a crucial role in shaping national research priorities in biological physics.
