Course description
BIPH3001 provides students with an opportunity to explore the many ways in which concepts and techniques from biophysics are shaping and influencing modern scientific research. Through a special topics lecture series, researchers from UQ highlight how cutting-edge biophysics plays a key role in addressing big research questions across a diverse spectrum of biology. In the second half of the course, students have an opportunity to enhance their knowledge in a specific area of biophysics research by completing a research proposal in partnership with an academic mentor.
