When Physics Meets Biology: The Antibody Paradox

When Physics Meets Biology: The Antibody Paradox
physics-memes, biology-memes, antimatter-memes, immune-system-memes, interdisciplinary-memes | ScienceHumor.io

Physicists having an existential crisis because biology doesn't follow their naming conventions! In physics, "anti" particles (like positrons, the antimatter version of electrons) have opposite properties to their counterparts. Meanwhile, the immune system is over here making antibodies that don't annihilate with bodies in a massive explosion. The horror! The confusion! The interdisciplinary betrayal! Next you'll tell me that butterfly nets don't capture quantum field fluctuations.
