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
Another large area of active research in the Biophysics Group is molecular microscopy. At the heart of the initiative is the idea that the next generation of microscopy will depend on novel optical probes made of proteins and nucleic acids, rather than organic chemicals. The ability to visualize the targeting within cells of native macromolecules has already become key to understanding their biological function. The next step is to understand how they assemble into the complexes that carry out cellular functions, and to monitor their activities in real-time in vivo with microscopy so that the spatial location of the activity can be understood.<br><br>Fluorescent indicator dyes have revolutionized our understanding of cellular signaling by providing continuous measurements of physiological events in single cells and cell populations with high temporal and spatial resolution. Until now, these organic dyes have been limited in scope because they must be synthesized chemically and introduced as hydrolyzable esters or by microinjection, meaning that they either fill all cells in a tissue entirely, or that only one or a small number of cells are labeled. In absence of targeting of the organic dyes to specific cell types, optical signals of interest are often drowned out either by indicator background from inactive cells, or by signals in cells that are not the focus of interest. Moreover, local signals due to protein-protein interactions are not measurable in the bulk cytoplasm, which organic dyes fill.
