Abstract
This Commentary represents the first instalment of a regular feature that seeks to fulfil one of Biophysical Reviews' IUPAB mandated goals-that of assisting in the international promotion of biophysical research. Known as the 'Editors' Roundup', this Commentary feature is a multi-author collective description of recently published research from journals publishing material across the biophysical realm. Although Biophysical Reviews is published by Springer-Nature, the source of contributed articles is unrestricted and can include different commercial and society publishers. In this edition we have article descriptions from the following journals, Biophysical Reviews, Biophysics and Physicobiology and Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics.
