Medical Biophysics
Director: Professor Rhoades
Graduate Faculty
Graduate Advisor: Professor Thomas Hurley, Medical Science Building, Room 4019, (317) 278-2008
Degrees Offered: Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy
An interdepartmental committee is responsible for the administration of the medical biophysics degree programs. The committee is composed of representatives from the Departments of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Microbiology and Immunology, and Physiology and Biophysics from the Indiana University School of Medicine and from the Departments of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics from the Purdue University School of Science at Indianapolis. Graduate training in the program is oriented primarily toward research at the molecular and cellular level with focus points at the boundaries of the traditional disciplines of physics, chemistry, and biology. Research programs include, but are not restricted to, membrane biophysics, structure-function relations in cells and macromolecules, muscle biophysics, biological magnetic resonance, x-ray crystallography, photobiology, and bioenergetics. Detailed descriptions of faculty research interests are available.
