Aims & Scope
npj Biological Physics and Mechanics considers research that explores the understanding of physical and mechanical aspects of biological processes across all relevant length scales, from molecular, cellular, and tissue scales, to organs and organisms.
The journal covers a broad range of topics including but not limited to:
- Mechanical properties of biological membranes
- Biomechanics of cellular and intracellular processes
- Single molecule biophysics and mechanics
- Biophysical aspects of cell signaling
- Mechanics of tissue dynamics, development, self-organization, and remodeling
- Biomechanics of disease
- Fluid dynamics in biological systems
- Biomechanics of biomaterials and implants
- Biophysical modeling and simulation
- Biophysical approaches to drug delivery
The journal offers more choice to Nature Portfolio authors who are seeking a fully open-access and more inclusive platform for publishing their work. The journal is led by biophysics experts who collaborate to cultivate high-quality research. As part of the npj Series, this journal focuses on fostering global partnerships with the research community and other Springer Nature journals.
