I believe it was Ernest Rutherford who said something to the effect:
"In science there is only physics.  Everything else is stamp
collecting."

Busby: "You cannot apply physics to human health."

Oh, I beg to differ ...

As a chemist, you should know well that health is physiology, physiology
is biochemistry, and biochemistry, at its basis, is physics. Which I
learned as an undergrad in the '70s.
