Molecular Biophysics seeks to explain biological phenomena in terms of the physical and chemical properties of biological molecules - DNA, RNA, protein, membranes.  It draws on the rich interactions that have developed in the interface regions between genetics, physics, chemistry, computer science, and other traditional disciplines.

Here are some of the frontiers:

Assembly and function of complex molecular machinery

  

Organization of molecular networks and the transfer of information within them
