A couple of times I've been asked by young biophysics enthusiasts: What is Computational Biophysics? My answer is simple and always the same. Biophysics is a field of scientific research and there are 3 ingredients required to do research; a laboratory, the tools for inquiry and the subject of inquiry. In computational biophysics we use physics principles to study biological systems on a computer.
