PHYS 391 - Biophysics Credits: 3
This course improves and develops understanding of physics concepts, and applies them to molecular and cellular biological systems. Concepts and principles from thermodynamics, statistical mechanics, and electricity will be applied to systems such as bacteria, cell membranes, vascular networks, and biological molecules (RNA, DNA, and proteins including enzymes). This course is for students who seek to learn more about the application of physics concepts and principles in biological systems, as well as for physics/biophysics students interested in thinking more about cells and biological molecules.
