生物物理学博士

哈佛大学的生物物理学计划培养具有不同背景的独立，有创造力的科学家，并使他们为独立的研究职业做好准备，在这些职业中，将物理科学的概念和方法应用于生物学问题。生物物理学是哈佛大学综合生命科学（HILS）的一部分，该学会由14个生命科学博士学位课程，部门和学科领域组成，是促进跨学科学术和研究合作的联盟。该计划由生物物理高级委员会管理，该委员会由生物化学和分子药理学，分子和细胞生物学，化学和化学生物学，物理学，遗传学和病理学系的高级代表组成。直接将学生介绍给教职员工及其研究，使他们能够选择研究顾问，并通过实验室和
The Biophysics Program at Harvard nurtures independent, creative scientists with diverse backgrounds and prepares them for independent research careers in which the concepts and methods of physical science are applied to biological problems. Biophysics is part of Harvard Integrated Life Sciences (HILS), a federation of 14 life sciences PhD programs, departments, and subject areas that facilitates cross-disciplinary academic and research collaboration. The program is administered by the Committee on Higher Degrees in Biophysics, which is comprised of senior representatives from the departments of biological chemistry and molecular pharmacology, molecular and cellular biology, chemistry and chemical biology, physics, genetics, and pathology. Students are introduced to faculty members and their research directly, enabling them to make a considered choice of research advisor, and learn about the diverse areas of biophysics through the laboratory and coursework. In the first two years, students receive the background that informs the second part of the program: training to be an independent scientist through intensive research that culminates in publication and a PhD. Owing to the interdepartmental nature of the program, students may pursue research on the Cambridge campus in the departments of molecular and cellular biology, chemistry and chemical biology, physics, and at the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, or on the Boston campus at Harvard Medical School, the Division of Medical Sciences, and the 11 Harvard-affiliated teaching hospitals, which include the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Brigham and Women's Hospital, Children's Hospital, Massachusetts General Hospital, and the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center.
