越来越多的物理学家从事研究活动，从物理学角度解决生物学问题，或努力从活跃的生物过程中发展物理学见解。这些活动的持续发展和成功改变了我们对“做生物物理学”的思考方式，并增加了我们对生命物理学的理解。在这个研究和教学领域，许多科学家都来自物理系。主办部门面临的一个挑战是如何分组，命名和结构这样的生物药理学家，以最好地增加价值，他们的新兴研究和教学，而且整个部门的投资组合。在这里，我们讨论这些问题，并推测战略。
Increasing numbers of physicists engage in research activities that address biological questions from physics perspectives or strive to develop physics insights from active biological processes. The on-going development and success of such activities morph our ways of thinking about what it is to'do biophysics' and add to our understanding of the physics of life. Many scientists in this research and teaching landscape are homed in physics departments. A challenge for a hosting department is how to group, name and structure such biophysicists to best add value to their emerging research and teaching but also to the portfolio of the whole department. Here we discuss these issues and speculate on strategies.
