Molecular biophysics typically addresses biological questions that are similar to those in biochemistry and [[molecular biology]], but the questions are approached quantitatively. Scientists in this field conduct research concerned with understanding the interactions between the various systems of a [[cell]], including the interactions between [[DNA]], [[RNA]] and [[protein]] biosynthesis, as well as how these interactions are regulated. A great variety of techniques are used to answer these questions.
