- Proteomics and other high-throughput methods and analysis
- Development and design of biomedical technology
- And much more…
Who should apply?
The Biophysics Program is a tight community of students with a broad variety of background and interests. We welcome applications from:
- students from majors in the biological and physical sciences (biology, biochemistry, chemistry, physics, bioengineering, molecular biology, neurosciences, etc)
- students who have or wish to develop a strong background in one of our main research areas
- students who have or wish to receive training at the intersection between various disciplines
- students interested in an exciting collaborative research environment
