Physics is the quantitative study of nature, with an impulse towards control and simplicity. Biological physics (or physical biology or biophysics) is that study of biological systems.  There are a growing number of biological physicists in Canada, applying their quantitative techniques to biology. These researchers have physics degrees, are in physics departments, are publishing in the physics literature, or should be.  Contact them for summer undergraduate research (USRA), for MSc or PhD graduate work, for postdocs, or for seminars and collaborations!  To add someone to the list, please email andrew.rutenberg@dal.ca.
