Biophysics Program
Beginning in the 1930's and continuing to the present, the University of Wisconsin-Madison has developed and maintained a strong tradition in cutting-edge molecular biophysics.
Graduate training in Biophysics is organized through two distinct but very closely allied programs: the Biophysics Graduate Degree Program, which confers the Ph.D. in Biophysics to its graduates, and the Molecular Biophysics Training Program, a program built around an NIH NRSA Institutional Training Grant awarded through the National Institute of General Medical Sciences. The two programs are coordinated through a common leadership and administrative structure to bring together the UW Biophysics community around mutual interests and needs. The training grant provides funds to help recruit, encourage and support a selected group of graduate students in this important area. A student applies to the Biophysics Degree Program through the formal admissions process; applications to Biophysics and other participating programs (Biochemistry, Chemistry, Physiology, and others) are further evaluated to decide on offers of a NIH training grant position.
The primary goal of the UW-Madison Biophysics Program is to foster development of scientists having exceptionally broad and deep exposure to modern physical, biological, and computational thought and research methodology.See the following link for details and application.
