Physical and Theoretical Chemistry

Session on Physical-Chemical Biology: Integrating Physical Principles into Biological Research.

Physical-Chemical Biology takes the forefront at the 12th World Congress on Physical and Theoretical Chemistry, highlighting the integration of physical principles into biological research. This session emphasizes the importance of understanding biological systems through the lens of physics and chemistry. Researchers showcase how physical principles, such as thermodynamics, kinetics, and molecular interactions, contribute to our understanding of biological processes, from cellular signaling to protein folding. By applying quantitative and computational approaches, scientists aim to unravel the underlying mechanisms governing life's complexities. Physical-chemical biology offers a multidisciplinary approach that bridges the gap between the physical and life sciences, opening new avenues for innovative discoveries and advancing our understanding of the biological world.
