About
Are you looking for a physics degree but want to do research in applying physics principles to problems in biology and medicine? Are you interested in state-of-the-art research?
The primary objective of the PhD program in biomedical physics is to graduate scientists who can apply the tools and concepts of physics to solve significant biological and medical problems and advance our understanding of fundamental biomedical processes. This interdisciplinary program combines both basic physics with problems in biology and medicine. Students have a wide variety of specialization, from radiation physics, photonics (lasers), spectroscopy, biomedical physics, medical physics, radiation biology and physiology, among others.
