The Molecular Biophysics Graduate Program offers students with strong backgrounds in the physical sciences the opportunity to develop careers in biomedical research. The curriculum focuses on the application of principles and techniques of the physical sciences to biomedical research problems. The faculty in this program are working in a variety of areas:
- Structure and function of macromolecules
- Biophysical approaches to protein folding and localization
- Crystallographic studies of conformationally regulated proteins and membrane proteins
- Cytoskeletal protein interactions
- Membrane transport
- Axonal transport
- Visual transduction
- Voltage gated and mechanosensitive channels
- Quantitative fluorescence microscopy
- Physiological NMR
- Development of instrumentation and methods for high throughput genomics and expression studies
- Computational biology
