Physical Biology is a peer-reviewed journal fostering the integration of biology with the traditionally more quantitative fields of physics, chemistry, computer science and other mathematics-based disciplines. Its primary aim is to further the quantitative characterization and understanding of biological systems at different levels of complexity, ranging from the role of structure and dynamics of a single molecule to the organization and evolution of molecular and cellular networks. See Aims and scope for more information on the journal.
