    Division of Physics in Life Sciences

    The object of the Division is to boost the influence and role of physics in the study of all kinds of biological problems at any possible level (research, education, dissemination and policies).


    The ultimate goal of DPL would be to create a dynamic community of Physics interested in Life Science through a common space for sharing knowledge and resources.
