跨学科的弗朗西斯·克里克研究所将于2015年在伦敦市中心成立,这体现了生物医学研究对物理方法需求日益增加的大趋势。从用肥皂泡进行细胞分裂建模,到使用同步时钟帮助理解胚胎的生长过程,物理学正在成为生物学家眼中越来越高效的工具。伦敦新落成的生物医学研究中心——弗朗西斯·克里克研究所,将把这一领域作为其主攻方向。这座耗资6.5亿欧元(合11亿美元)的研究所以DNA结构的共同发现者、物理学家出身的生物 The interdisciplinary Francis Crick Institute will be set up in central London in 2015, reflecting the growing trend in biomedical research for physical methods. From modeling cell-division with soap bubbles to using synchronized clocks to help understand embryonic growth, physics is becoming an increasingly more efficient tool for biologists. The newly established Francis Crick Institute, a new biomedical research center in London, will make this area its main focus. The $ 650 million ($ 1.1 billion) research institute, co-inventor of DNA structures, a biologist-born creature
