Biophysical Society

Publications - the biophysical journal is a semimonthly publication of bps. It includes original articles and reviews on molecular, cellular, and systems biophysics, including experimental studies with a theoretical or mechanistic focus, or research describing significant methodological or technological advances. Areas covered include: cell biophysics, channels/transporters/receptors, genome biophysics and nucleic acids, membranes, molecular machines/motors/nanoscale biophysics, and proteins. The biophysicist aims to highlight and nurture education, and its scholarship and development. The open access journal serves a worldwide audience to make fundamental concepts and techniques in biophysics (and related disciplines), as well as evidence-based pedagogical practice accessible to individuals at all levels: undergraduate, graduate and post-graduate students/trainees, active researchers, and scholars of biophysics teaching and learning. Biophysical reports is a high-quality, forward-looking gold open access (oa) publishing option for the research community. We help you advance biophysics by making it easier for specialists and generalists to share new insights into experimental data or new technologies and methodologies. At biophysical reports, open means rigorous, accessible, concise, and fast.

Public affairs - the biophysical society invests in public policy efforts on behalf of its members and the science of biophysics. Through its public affairs committee, it keeps society members current on relevant legislation and science policy issues. The society has taken the initiative in advocating for increased funding at the interface between the life sciences and physical sciences.
