Biophysics

Course DirectorySNHU PHY318 has 1 direct prerequisite, with 8 courses in its complete prerequisite tree.

Undergraduate · 3 credits

Biophysics is the interdisciplinary science that closes the gap between biology and physics. Students investigate biological processes using physical laws and mathematics. The physics of biological systems is investigated on spatial scales ranging from atoms and molecules to cells, organisms, and biological environments. Students will develop an appreciation of the underlying physics in all biological phenomena.
