MB&B 309
Fall 2024
Section: 01  
Crosslisting: CHEM 309, CHEM 509, MB&B 509, PHYS 339, PHYS 539
Course Cluster and Certificates: Health Studies

This course is an integration of the physical and chemical principles underlying biological systems from molecules to cells. The objectives are to develop an understanding of the underlying biological and physical principles that inform biophysical methods (e.g., protein-protein interaction studies, enzyme kinetics, spectroscopy, structural biology), how these concepts and techniques can be used to address open scientific questions, and how to critically evaluate their use in scientific literature. Particular emphasis will be placed on the biophysical concepts underlying studies of proteins, enzymes, and metalloproteins.
