Highlights of 2008

I am pleased to present a special collection of articles highlighting the very best research published in Physical Biology in 2008.

2008 was a great year for the journal which saw its Impact Factor rise to 3.108, an achievement reflected in this small selection of the best new work published in the journal.

Articles were selected for their presentation of outstanding new research, receipt of the highest praise from our international referees, and the greatest number of downloads from the journal website, providing a taste of the journal's overall content.

All of these articles are available completely free to read until 31 December 2009. Information on how to access, write for or subscribe to Physical Biology can be found on the journal's homepage or contact us at physbio@iop.org.

I hope you will enjoy reading this selection.
