The frontier between life and physical sciences currently includes the strategic research field where the wealth of data produced by new quantitative technologies in molecular biology naturally meets the advanced analysis and modelling tools of theoretical physics. For its profound scientific implications and huge potential impacts in biomedicine, such an area of investigation is attracting substantial interest. Therefore, in the following contribution, I briefly review some developments in the research field under scrutiny.
