4.00 Credits
Focuses on observation of macroscopic and microscopic bodies, the uncertainty principle, wave-particle duality, probability amplitudes, Schr dinger wave theory and one-dimensional problems, Schr dinger equation in three dimensions, angular momentum, and the hydrogen atom.
-
4.00 Credits
Examines the physical principles of bioelectricity. Covers the anatomical and physiological basis of signal propagation in nerve and muscle cells, the active properties of cell membranes, electrophysiological models of charge and ion transport across membranes, action potential propagation in excitable tissues, the behavior of bioelectric and biomagnetic fields in and around the volume conductors formed by the body, and the theoretical foundations of electrocardiology and electroencephalography.
-
4.00 Credits
Introduces the physical principles and basic mathematical methods underlying the various modalities of medical imaging. These include computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance (MRI), positron emission tomography (PET), single-photon emission tomography (SPECT), and ultrasound. Covers nuclear physics and the interaction of radiation with biological matter with application to radiation therapy.
-
4.00 Credits
Offers the first part of a seminar series conducted by expert practitioners from Boston-area hospitals. Examines the clinical applications of medical imaging methods (CT, MRI, and PET), the clinical applications of radiation therapy, and the clinical applications of lasers and optical techniques. Includes site visits to local hospitals and medical instrumentation companies.
-
4.00 Credits
Continues PHY U651. Further examines the clinical applications of medical imaging methods (CT, MRI, and PET), the clinical applications of radiation therapy, and the clinical applications of lasers and optical techniques.
-
4.00 Credits
Designed to be a strong introduction for students interested in nanoscience and technology. Nanotechnology promises to transform twenty-first-century technology by exploiting phenomena exhibited by nanoscaled materials. This technology is expected to have significant impact in diverse areas such as computers, electronics, health, etc. Successful technological advancement of this field requires that we have a fundamental understanding of the "science" of these materials. Focuses on reviewing the basic scientific concepts relevant to this field and also gives a broad overview of the current state-of-the-art in research and technology. Comprises a series of lectures on various topics: development of nanofabrication methods, advanced microscopy techniques, fabrication of novel nanomaterials, investigation of their fundamental properties, and device applications.
-
4.00 Credits
Allows students to select and carry out individual projects involving instrumentation and computation. Involves the development of some aspect of instrumentation and/or computation in an ongoing research project and the preparation of a final report. The student is supervised by the project leader and the course instructor.
