Description
|
There is a growing recognition of the need for laboratory activities that allow life science and biophysics students to explore and deepen their understanding of physics through such contexts as physiology, medical diagnostic and therapeutic devices, biomechanics, biological processes, and biological research techniques. Several individuals and groups who have been working independently on such laboratory activities will present examples of their labs. After an initial overview by all the presenters, participants will break into rotating groups for hands-on experience with different laboratory activities and more detailed discussion with each presenter about the pertinent pedagogy and apparatus. A flash drive with materials for all the laboratory activities will be given to the participants.
