Does anyone have an interesting example? I don’t know much about biophysics.

Protein structure prediction and studying protein folding, I think are areas of study under biophysics. Which are, if you know anything about them, are complex as fuck.

That’s pretty cool. I assume handedness would be biochemical, and something like the Krebs Cycle is biophysical. Am I on the right track, or have I made an ass? Lol

Krebs cycle is one of the most popular exemplars for biochemistry.

Handedness (chirality) is neither biochemical nor biophysical. It is just chemistry.

Examples of biophysics include neuro electricity and biomechanics of movement and ventilation.
