title: The emergence of a new kind of biology.
abstract: 'It is happily no longer axiomatic that a biophysicist is a physiologist who can fix his own amplifier. Fortunately, physicists are still drifting into biology and bringing new ideas. Please dear colleagues, do take the time to learn biochemistry.' Harold Morowitz provides a personal perspective on working at the interface between the physical and biological sciences.
