Biophysics

1. Are you excited by the idea of applying physical principles to understand biological systems?

2. Do you enjoy quantitative problem solving involving math, modeling, or simulations of dynamic systems?

3. Are you interested in experimental techniques that measure forces, structures, or dynamics in biological molecules or cells?

4. Do you enjoy integrating knowledge from biology, physics, chemistry, and computation to solve complex questions?

5. Are you comfortable learning and using programming or computational tools to analyze biophysical data?

6. Do you enjoy dissecting mechanisms at multiple scales (molecular, cellular, tissue) and linking them logically?

7. Are you interested in techniques like fluorescence microscopy, single-molecule force spectroscopy, or imaging and their underlying physics?

8. Do you value rigor in experiment design, reproducibility, and careful interpretation of data?

9. Are you motivated by applications such as understanding disease mechanisms, developing medical technologies, or synthetic biology from a physical perspective?

10. Do you enjoy collaborating across diverse scientific backgrounds and communicating complex concepts clearly?
