The Biophysics program has as its goal the study of normal and abnormal protein structure and function, particularly membrane channel proteins, the normal and abnormal function of cells, organs and intact animals and humans using state-of-the-art biophysical, computational, genomic, proteomic and physiological techniques. There is special emphasis on the biophysical properties of the neural, cardiac, and respiratory systems. The Graduate program, known for the excellence of its research faculty and flexibility of the program, offers training towards a Masters Degree or a Ph.D. degree. |
