Biophysics is the study of biology by applying principles of physics in the broadest sense. Brown faculty are active in the following areas of biophysics research: (a) biomechanics of cell cytoskeleton and signal transduction, (b) biotechnology for drug and gene delivery, and (c) molecular structure and function of recepters and ion channels. Biophysics concentrators may perform independent studies in the above research areas, or other areas in biology,... |
