Introduction to Experimental Biophysics: Biological Methods for Physical Scientists is a broad introduction to the new life-science based methods shedding light on physical science issues  

What does this book cover?

Introduction to Experimental Biophysics: Biological Methods for Physical Scientists is part of the Foundations of Biochemistry and Biophysics series. It looks deeply at the newest biochemical concepts being used by physical scientists to expand the envelope of experimental feasibility.

It was written with the graduate student in mind, and will be incredibly useful for computer scientists, mathematicians, chemists, chemical engineers, physicists and biomedical engineers who wish to learn the latest biophysical techniques.

This book contains:

• All of the latest analytical techniques used in biophysical research
• Step-by-step experimental design advice
• Complete reagent lists, recipes for media and solutions, and a glossary of relevant biological terms
