Welcome to Biophysics

Biophysicists at Michigan are working in the fields of Structural Biology, Spectroscopy and Microscopy, Computational Biophysics and Bioinformatics, and Biophysical Chemistry. Approximately 80 graduate students, post-docs and professors work in our well-equipped laboratories. The graduate program offers a flexible curriculum of exciting courses related to these fields, taking advantage of the resources available at a major research University.

2nd Midwest Single Molecule Workshop, July 26-27, 2012, hosted by Biophysics

Welcome to the second Midwest Single Molecule Workshop, to be held on Thursday/Friday, July 26-27, 2012, on the campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. This workshop gathers the leading single molecule microscopy researchers from all across the Midwest (loosely defined!) to share their ideas, research and resources.

Over almost two days, the meeting's agenda includes a keynote address by Prof. Carlos Bustamante from UC Berkeley, 21 short talks to be broadly picked from the submitted abstracts, two poster sessions/receptions, two breakfasts, two lunches and a banquet.

When the first of these workshops was held at Washington University in Saint Louis in 2010, it was very popular and attracted ~120-researchers, and we hope for a similar or somewhat larger audience this year. So please join us in what promises to become a fun two days of in singulo mania!
