This is a blog that is dedicated to everyone that is interested in biophysics and is willing to learn more. Its main purpose is to be an educational platform, rather than a regular science updates, as I not only talk about latest research but also discuss early classics in biophysics. Different from most scientific blogs, I seldom shy away from the math that is involved, and it is one of my goals to explain them as clearly as possible. To help people understand a research article more, there are many posts titled with "fundamentals" to introduce the concepts first.
I truly believe that with passion and great guidance, everyone should be able to understand everything. Though I still have much to improve, I will try my best to be your guide to the fantasy world of biophysics!
This blog was originally a Facebook page written in Chinese. It then evolved into a blog hosted by Blogger, and it is now shifted contents to Notion to make it more centralized and easier for me to type equations. I hope you find the content helpful and fun, just like I do!
(BTW, just in case anyone is curious. I named this blog "Three Minute Biophysics" following the name of "Three Minute Thesis" contest, because I originally hoped that I can explain difficult scientific contents in a concise manner. The name of this blog has nothing to do with Minute Physics, a YouTube channel that I really enjoy.)

Content of the blog (Table format)
Like all responsible scientific publications require a reference, I want to pay tribute to other blogs that are dedicated to biophysics. It is very difficult to regularly produce high quality posts that even lay persons can understand, so I think it is important for me to recognize similar efforts made by other people.
The following list is compiled by me searching exhaustively on Google about blogs in biophysics, with actual scientific contents(not just career or seminar info), written in English, excluding sites with less than 10 posts dedicated to biophysics (even though some of them are awesome). I hope this would be helpful for anyone who wants to learn more in this field. (Asterisk mark denotes currently active blogs.)
