BIO503 – Biological Physics is a core book for all students in this interdisciplinary field at Virtual University. This advanced, comprehensive text on the principles and applications of physics in biological systems lays a good foundation for the understanding of many complex biological phenomena.
Starting from the introductory overview of the concepts of physics applied in biological systems—be it mechanics, thermodynamics, or electromagnetism—this book explains how physical laws explain biological processes down to such a level as molecular dynamics, biomolecular interactions, and the physics of cellular structures.
This will enable students to gain advanced knowledge on how biological systems respond to physical forces, all the way from molecular level to tissues and organs. The concepts of fluid dynamics in biological systems, bioelectricity, and mechanical properties of biomolecules like DNA, proteins, and membranes will also be covered.
BIO503 is a well-balanced course, covering theory and applications alike. In the field of biological physics research, graduated, step-by-step explanations are given of experimental techniques and computational methods. It shows how concepts in physics give insight into other disciplines, which include molecular biology, neuroscience, and bioengineering, thus really making biological physics an interdisciplinary subject.
The BIo503 book has discussed ethical issues of research in biological physics with a special focus on using technology in studying living systems. With its detailed explanation and examples, this will provide students more clarity in conducting research and applying theoretical knowledge into practice.
