CHEM 305: Biophysical Chemistry is an advanced course that delves into the principles of physical chemistry applied to biological systems. This course is designed for students with a strong background in chemistry and biology who are interested in understanding the physical and chemical properties of biomolecules and their interactions. Through a combination of lectures, laboratory experiments, and computational simulations, students will explore the structure and dynamics of proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates. They will also learn about techniques used to study biophysical properties, such as spectroscopy, X-ray crystallography, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). By the end of CHEM 305, students will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to analyze complex biological systems at the molecular level.
