Doctor's degrees in Biophysics: A program that focuses on the application of physics principles to the scientific study the mechanisms of biological processes and assemblies at all levels of complexity. Includes instruction in research methods and equipment operation and applications to subjects such as bioenergetics, biophysical theory and modeling, electrophysics, membrane biology, channels, receptors and transporters, contractility and muscle function, protein shaping and folding, molecular and supramolecular structures and assemblies, and computational science.

Graduate study in biophysics is interdisciplinary and highly individualized. Students majoring in biophysics are expected to obtain a broad, interdisciplinary knowledge of fundamental principles in both the biological and physical sciences. But because biophysics covers a wide range of areas, it would be unrealistic to expect to master each facet in detail. A student working in computational modeling of protein motions will develop a strong background... |

Overview
The Physiology, Biophysics & Systems Biology (PBSB) graduate program at Weill Cornell Graduate School of Medical Sciences (WCGS) is designed to engage students in education through research in current and innovative aspects of three synergistic components of modern biomedicine: physiology”the functions of cells, tissues, and organs; biophysics”the application of principles of physics to biological processes; and systems”the complex interactions... |
