Barcelona the 15th-18th January 2017 entitled ¨Biology for Physics: is there new physics in living matter?¨. The workshop is organized under the auspices of the Division of Physics for Life Sciences from the European Physical Society (EPS), and will be held at the Barcelona Biomedical Research Park (PRBB).
Since the dawn of modern science, physics has developed the measurement tools for quantitative inquiry, and provided mathematical laws to describe and understand the world around us. In turn, physical methods have traditionally found fruitful applications in chemistry and biology. In the current century, it is not exaggerated to say that biology has been the fastest developing science, but it is also not less true that physics and chemistry contributions have been essential to make biology the quantitative science it is nowadays. However, despite all this progress, living matter has astonishing features that, when confronted to those of inanimate matter, make physicists suspect that they are missing something in their current understanding of the living. This leads us to pose the question: is there new physics in living matter?
