Why BioPhysics ?
• Material Nature of Bio-substances affect Biological properties. (Evolution made use of the physical properties of bio-materials)
• Physical principles & Laws holds from microscopic level macroscopic level
• Traditional Biology is descriptive, non-quantitative
Why BioPhysics ?
• Physics is universal. • Rise of molecular biology: DNA, RNA, protein ar
e universal in all living matters• Universality in Central Dogma: DNARNApro
teinBiological functions…• New, interesting, exciting & useful.• Lots of unsolved important problems.• Techniques & Methodology in physics can probe
the fundamental principles in bio-systems of a wide spectrum of scales in a quantitative way.
國立中央大學 生物物理研究所 • Officially established in 2004• 教授 : 6 副教授 : 1 助理教授 3• 合聘教授 : 2 合聘助理教授 : 1• 現有從事生物物理領域在學研究生 碩士班: 23 博士班: 8 • 博士後 : 3 • 以物理之技術或方法去探討生物系統中存在之
基本原理,從而對生物過程提供深入及定量之了解。
• 「 5年 500 億」頂尖中心經費建立生物物理共用核心設施
• 歡迎物理與非物理背景同學加入 .中大及中研院提供獎學金
BioPhysics Institute @NCU • Officially established in 2004• Professors: 6 Assoc. Prof.: 1 Assist. Prof. 3• Adj. Prof.: 2 Adj. assist.prof.: 1• Graduate students working on areas in biophysics M.S. : 23 Ph. D. : 8 • Postdocs: 5• aims at achieving some quantitative description of bi
ological processes and search for the fundamental principles buried in these highly complex biological phenomena
• 「 5 years 500B 」 grant to support research & building of core facility labs.
• Cross-disciplinary: researchers/students from physics & non-physics background
