Overview
Biophysics from University of Würzburg topics are composed of two theory modules as well as a practical course unit each. Further research training is provided in a selected field of interest, and the students are actively involved in ongoing research projects and learn to independently plan and perform both theoretical and experimental work and finally, to summarize and discuss the results obtained in the thesis
Students at Biophysics from University of Würzburg will:
- acquire theoretical aspects and principles in biophysics, cell biology, developmental biology, microbiology, bioinformatics.
- learn to use computer based approaches to address and resolve problems in these biophysical area of research.
- be able to apply basic methods in the fields of biophysics, biochemistry and structural biology in order to resolve and critically discuss questions with regard to soluble or membrane proteins.
- be able to review and expand their knowledge of standard molecular and biophysical techniques and are able to choose methods and techniques to design experiments in a specific research area.
