Publisher Description: The Encyclopedia of Biophysics is envisioned both as an easily accessible source of information and as an introductory guide to the scientific literature. It includes entries describing both Techniques and Systems.
Thus the Encyclopedia is intended to provide a resource both for biophysicists interested in methods beyond those used in their immediate sub-discipline and for those readers who are approaching biophysics from either a physical or biological background. The entries include concise introductions to the major concepts and methods, and outlines of more specific topics, in each case with links to carefully selected key reviews and/or papers in the scientific literature. There are also short definitions explaining key terms. Extensive cross-referencing (hyperlinks in the online version) between different articles will allow rapid and user-friendly access to related topics, including hyperlinks to key articles in the scientific literature. |
