Course Objective and Content

Course Objectives: It is a rapidly developing interdisciplinary field of research that combines the concepts of physics, chemistry, engineering, mathematics and biology. With this course, students try to understand biomolecular systems and aim to explain biological functionality in terms of molecular structure, structural organization and dynamic behavior.
Course Content: The molecular biophysics course brings a different dimension to the efforts of explaining the events of molecular biology (and biochemistry) by reducing them to the molecular level through quantum mechanics, thermodynamics and informatics methods and concepts. Beyond that, biophysics emerges as the main branch of science that has the potential to describe and explain the relationships and connections between the findings and observations at the molecular level and the structuring and behavior at the organismal level, and to integrate and interpret the knowledge gained at different levels.
