520 3 |a Physical biology is a fusion of biology and physics. This book narrows down the scope of physical biology by focusing on the microbial cell; exploring the physical phenomena of noise, feedback, and variability that arise in the cellular information-processing circuits used by bacteria. It looks at the microbe from a physics perspective, asking how the cell optimizes its function to live within the constraints of physics. It introduces a physical and information-based (as opposed to microbiological) perspective on communication and signalling between microbes.

545 |a Steve Hagen is Professor of Physics at the University of Florida. He began his scientific career in experimental condensed matter physics, studying high temperature superconductivity. He then switched to biological physics, studying first protein folding dynamics and then bacterial communication. Most recently his research work has focused on unravelling noisy regulatory pathways in quorum sensing bacteria. He has published numerous scientific papers in all of these areas, and he recently edited a book on the physics of bacterial communication.
