2021 Membrane Structure & Function Subgroup

sku Product SKU:  DUES-MEMSTRUC-2021

The Membrane Structure and Function Subgroup (MSAF) promotes and advances knowledge about the biophysical properties of lipids, membranes, and membrane-associated molecules, including membrane proteins. As such, its mission is to provide an intellectual home base for its members as the Biophysical Society continues to rapidly grow and expand its realms of interests. To do so, the MSAF sponsors a popular Saturday Symposium at the Biophysical Society Annual Meeting. The MSAF also maintains an e-mail list for communication with its members. The MSAF is led by an Advisory Committee consisting of the past chair, the present chair, and the chair-elect.

2022 Motility & Cytoskeleton Subgroup

sku Product SKU:  DUES-MOTILITY-2022

The mission of the Motility and Cytoskeleton Subgroup is to understand the basic mechanisms that underlie motility and contractility of biological systems. These processes are ultimately the result of molecular motors or contractile filaments that convert chemical energy stored in ATP/GTP into mechanical energy that drives, for example, cell motility, cytokinesis and muscle contraction. The structure and function of the motor families myosin, kinesin and dynein and the cytoskeletal filaments F-actin and microtubules are frequent topics of the annual meetings of the subgroup. Areas of focus also include the regulatory proteins that control the activity of motors and the cytoskeleton,.

sku Product SKU:  DUES-MGO-2022

The Multiscale Genome Organization (MGO) Subgroup was founded in 2020 by Tom Connor Bishop of Louisiana Tech University and Tamar Schlick of New York University. The first MGO Subgroup Symposium will be in 2021.
The focus of the Multiscale Genome Organization (MGO) Subgroup is the study of genome organization, dynamics and function on multiple temporal and spatial scales ranging from individial nucleic acids to whole chromosomes using a broad range of integrative experimental, theoretical and computational techniques with the goal of deciphering how genomic and epigenomic information drives basic life processes.

2022 Nanoscale Approaches to Biology Subgroup

sku Product SKU:  DUES-NANOSCALE-2022

The Nanoscale Approaches to Biology Subgroup (formerly Nanoscale Biophysics subgroup) has been covering single-molecule biophysics, super-resolution imaging, nanoparticles and nanodevices since 2010, with a focus on the development of new biophysical methods and instrumentation, and their application to current biophysical questions. The subgroup aims to advance the field of nanoscale biophysics through the exchange of information, ideas, and innovative techniques operating at the scale of nanometers to tens of nanometers, and by uniting participants at the interface of scientific disciplines from biophysics to physics, chemistry, and beyond. We promise that you will return home with at least one new idea! Each year, the subgroup sponsors a symposium highlighting exciting advances in biophysics on the nanometer scale. The symposium is followed by a networking event: cocktails and a light dinner.

2022 Physical Cell Biology Subgroup

sku Product SKU:  DUES-CELLBIO-2022

The Physical Cell Biology Subgroup (formerly Cell Biophysics Subgroup) aims to bring biophysical studies into cells to probe structures, functions, dynamics, and interactions of macromolecules in their own physiological context. A living cell is a complex entity; the heterogeneous cellular environment is drastically different from the homogenous, well-mixed situation in vitro. Recent technical advances have made it possible to probe the inner working of cells with unprecedented resolution, sensitivity, and specificity; new experimental and computational studies have provided invaluable, quantitative understandings of cellular processes. The Subgroup will provide a much-needed platform for researchers to share scientific ideas, discuss research results, forge new collaborations, and together, to push the frontiers of knowledge in cell biophysics.

sku Product SKU:  DUES-SMFMV-2022

The Single Molecule Forces, Manipulation, & Visualization Subgroup focuses on the detailed mechanistic research of biomolecular processes using single-molecule tools that apply forces, manipulate objects, and/or acquire images or other optical signals.

The Subgroup is open to researchers that address biological questions at the molecular scale using force and/or single-molecule fluorescence (e.g. DNA/RNA-protein interactions, protein folding, protein droplets, molecular motors, etc.). The Subgroup aims to advance the field of single-molecule biophysics through the presentation of novel findings, and exchange of advances in innovative methods, tools, and assays to tackle all possible steps from experimental design to data analysis. We invite participants from all scientific disciplines, from biophysics and structural biology, to biochemistry, molecular biology, and beyond.

2022 Theory & Computation Subgroup

sku Product SKU:  DUES-THEOC-2022

The purpose of the Theory and Computation Subgroup is to better highlight and network biophysicists who are interested in theoretical and computational aspects of biophysical systems, to provide a scientific forum for mini-symposia before Biophysical Society (BPS) meetings, to elevate the visibility and importance of theory and simulation within BPS overall, and to attract new members to BPS in this area.

The role of theory and computation in biophysical research has grown enormously over the past 50 years. Much of this growth has occurred in the area of all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Likewise, the role of physics-based analytical theory continues to be central to our understanding of biophysical systems. In recent years there has been dramatic growth in related and new computational areas, such as free energy sampling, coarse-graining, QM/MM, ligand docking, multiscale modeling, knowledge and data driven computational biology, and most recently in the explosive growth of machine learning methods that may well fundamentally influence significant segments of biophysical science. Indeed, we have reached a point in time where the strongest papers and grant proposals have both experimental and theoretical/computational elements to them.

We welcome all theoretical and computational approaches for the study of biophysical systems, including (but not limited to) analytical theory and those computational methods mentioned above – all with a strong connection to experimental biophysical research to the extent possible.
