THIRD INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON BIOLOGICAL PHYSICS 1998

国际纯粹与应用物理学联合会（International Union of Pure and Applied Physics） C6生物物理委员会，赞助了一系列国际 生物物理学专题讨论会。这一建议是为了支持第三次 国际生物物理学研讨会。标题国际 生物物理学明确指出这次会议的目的： 国际物理学家、物理化学家和生物学家大会 他们希望探索物理学在生物学中的应用， 生物学能教给我们关于复杂系统的物理学知识。第三 研讨会的范围将是广泛的，反映了我们越来越多的信心， 令人兴奋的物理学和生物学可以在许多不同的层面上找到 生物系统的复杂性和组织性。主题将扩展 从蛋白质和核酸到膜、网络和细胞。的 研讨会将通过强调生物学之间的相互作用来统一 和物理学，互相学习，在密切的互动中， 实验理论和计算之间的联系特别强调的是 吸引女性和年轻科学家参加这次会议，我们 正在向国家卫生研究院申请资助， 参加这个论坛

DESCRIPTION: The international Union of Pure and Applied Physics Commission C6 Biological Physics, has sponsored a series of International Symposia on Biological Physics. This proposal is for support for the Third International Symposium for Biological Physics. The title International Biological Physics states clearly the purpose of this meeting: an International gathering of physicists, physical chemists and biologists who wish to probe both the applications that physics has to biology, and what biology can teach us about the physics of complex systems. The third symposium will be broad in scope, reflecting our growing confidence that exciting physics and biology will be found at many different levels of complexity and organization in biological systems. The topics will extend from proteins and nucleic acids to membranes, networks, and cells. The symposium will be unified by the emphasis on the interplay between biology and physics, each learning from the other, and in the close interactions among experiment, theory, and computation. A special emphasis will be placed on attracting women and young scientists to this meeting, and we are requesting from the NIH support money for these people so they may attend.
