The faces above are those of first-year
students planning on majoring in physics taking
a seminar course instead of the traditional
introductory lab. This year's focus in
biological physics is in part made possible by
grants from HHMI.
Other innovative efforts made possible by these
grants are the purchase of the state-of-the art
instructional equipment such as the research
grade light scattering setup. The
instructor also involves students in research on
molecular biophysics that gives students a taste
of a truly interdisciplinary enterprise.
Research on Molecular Biophysics:
The instructor has involved Kenyon and non-Kenyon students, as well
as a teacher from a local high school in his research.
