Explore the cutting-edge frontiers of biological physics in this thought-provoking one-hour talk from APS Physics. Delve into the four key scientific questions identified by the Decadal Survey for Biological Physics as crucial for the next decade: the physics problems organisms must solve, information representation and processing in living systems, emergence of macroscopic life functions from microscopic interactions, and how living systems navigate parameter space. Engage in a critical discussion about potential overlooked questions and strategies for preparing ourselves and future generations to tackle these complex challenges. Examine the scientific inquiries, educational approaches, funding considerations, and inequality issues highlighted in the survey report, gaining valuable insights into the future direction of this interdisciplinary field.
