Biophysics is an interdisciplinary science that applies approaches and methods traditionally utilized in physics to review biological phenomena. Biophysics covers all scales of biological organization, from molecular to organismic and populations. Biophysical research shares significant overlap with biochemistry, biology , chemistry , physiology, nanotechnology, bioengineering, computational biology, biomechanics, developmental biology and systems biology. The term biophysics was originally introduced by Karl Pearson in 1892. Ambiguously, the term biophysics is additionally regularly utilized in academia to point the study of the physical quantities (e.g. current , temperature, stress, entropy) in biological systems, which is, by definition, performed by physiology. Nevertheless, other biological sciences also perform research on the biophysical properties of living organisms including biology , cell biology, biophysics, and biochemistry.
