Bioimaging

The course is now full and we are no longer accepting applications. Please note that we offer Gene and Genome Analysis in Spring of 2010. Applications for that course are available towards the end of the Fall semester.

Biological imaging has revealed with unprecedented clarity the three-dimensional organization of structures within cells and has been used to measure the dynamic properties of single molecules, multicomponent complexes, organelles, and entire cells. In numerous instances, important new insights into fundamental biological processes have resulted from the application of improved imaging methods. In this sophomore-level integrative course, students learn quantitative imaging approaches and the physics and chemistry that underlie these methods, and apply these methods to the study of cellular processes. The course will include a research module in which students embark on a hypothesis-driven project of their design. Cutting edge research in cell biology relies heavily on the use of quantitative imaging approaches – thus we will prepare students for careers and advanced study in cellular, molecular and developmental biology.

Admission is by application only. See link to download application at the top of this page.
