国际学生入学条件
Minimum requirements for admission to graduate study:
A bachelor's degree or recognized equivalent from an accredited institution.
Minimum GPA of 3.0.
Sufficient undergraduate training to undertake graduate work in the chosen field. This includes such undergraduate majors as: biological sciences, structural biology, physics, math, and chemistry. Laboratory experience is highly recommended.
GRE scores. We do not have set requirements for GRE scores. Outstanding GRE scores alone do not guarantee admission, nor do low scores disqualify an applicant. Three letters of recommendation, minimum (up to five are accepted): Letters of recommendation must be submitted online as part of the Graduate Division's application process. Letters are also due Nov 30, so please inform your recommenders of this deadline and give them sufficient advance notice. It is your responsibility to monitor the status of your letters of recommendation (sending prompts, as necessary) in the online system. Unofficial copies of all relevant transcripts, uploaded as part of the online application, Applicants are required to take the Graduate Record Examination and have their exam scores reported to the University. Top applicants who are being considered for admission will be invited to visit campus for interviews with faculty. If the applicant comes from a country or political entity (e.g., Quebec) where English is not the official language, adequate proficiency in English to do graduate work, as evidenced by a TOEFL score of at least 90 on the iBT test, 570 on the paper-and-pencil test, or an IELTS Band score of at least 7 on a 9-point scale (note that individual programs may set higher levels for any of these)

课程简介
Studies relating the structure and dynamics of biological macromolecules to function are a significant part of modern biophysics. This area of research spans a large range of topics and is well represented in the Biophysics Graduate Group at Berkeley. Current areas of research include how soluble proteins involved in signaling, regulation, and key enzymatic steps interact to carry out their function, and how membrane proteins change conformation to generate signals, pump ions and molecules or to affect membrane fusion. Studies focus on the structure of proteins, RNA and DNA with an emphasis on the rules and trajectories of protein folding, the rapid protein motions of channels, pumps and motors, photochemistry and phototransduction, the molecular interactions between proteins and DNA, the mechanism of RNA catalysis, and the design of ligands that bind to nucleic acids and act as specific regulators.<br><br>Insights into biomolecular behavior are leading to practical applications in biotechnology and bioengineering. The complementary skills of scientists in biology, physics, chemistry and engineering in approaching these areas of research enhances progress tremendously.
