Abstract

The American Physical Society (APS) annual meeting last March in Portland, Ore., featured more than 100 presentations touching on microbiology and many others on cell biology. Early in the 20th century, physicist Ernest Rutherford said, “In science there is only physics; all the rest is stamp collecting.” The subsequent involvement of physicists in the early development of molecular biology, although unpopular in some circles, helped to overcome that earlier antagonism. Even if rivalries persist between the disciplines, cooperation once again is on the rise.
