PHYS 280: Physical Models of Biological Systems
3.00 Credits
University of Pennsylvania
Prerequisite(s): PHYS 101 (or higher), MATH 104 and (MATH 114 or MATH 115). Recommended: previous or concurrent PHYS 102; basic background in chemistry and biology. Classic case studies of successful reductionistic models of complex phenomena, emphasizing the key steps of (1) making estimates, often based on dimensional analysis, (2) using them to figure out which physical variables and phenomena will be most relevant to a given system, and which may be disregarded, and (3) finding analogies to purely physical systems whose behavior is already known. The cases studied involve basic biological processes, mainly at the molecular and cellular level, in the light of ideas from physics. Topics may include entropic forces, free energy transduction at the molecular level, the structure of biopolymers, molecular motors, pattern formation (oscillation and morphogenesis), immune response, nerve impulses and neural computing, and other forms of signal transduction.

PHYS 295: Introduction to Research in Physics and Astronomy
3.00 Credits
University of Pennsylvania
Prerequisite(s): PHYS 150/151 or PHYS 170/171 or PHYS 101/102. Benjamin Franklin Seminar. This course will provide an introduction to current research performed by faculty in the Department of Physics and Astronomy. It will be particularly appropriate for sophomore or junior physics majors interested in participating in physics research; it will also be of interest to other science- or engineering-oriented students who want to learn more about current topics in physics. Grading will be based on attendance at seminars presented by faculty, homework assignments, and a term paper.
