Overview

Biophysics is an interdisciplinary science that applies the approaches and
methods of physics to study biological systems. Biophysics covers all scales of
biological organization, from molecular to organismic and populations.
Biophysical research shares significant overlap with biochemistry, physical
chemistry, nanotechnology, bioengineering, computational biology,
biomechanics and systems biology.
This level 4 diploma in biophysics is designed by London School Of Science & Management to address biological questions like those in biochemistry and
molecular biology and to find the physical underpinnings of biomolecular
phenomena. This course will give participants access to a quantitative
grounding in the Biophysical Science. Thus, participants will be comfortable
engaging with physics as with biology, and will be able to apply the distinctive
conceptual frameworks of these different disciplines to problems at the
boundary between physics and the living world.

Course Delivery

This is a self-study course, students have 100% freedom to complete the course, there is no time restriction on this course.

Description

This course is designed to teach participants some aspects of biology from a
physics perspective. This course will cover topics such as cell structure, random
walks and diffusion, entropic forces, chemical forces, macromolecules, and
molecular mechanisms and machines. This diploma course will explore
organisms at all levels of biological organization from the macroscopic (e.g.
movement, muscle contractions, breathing) to the microscopic (e.g. cell
division, molecular motors, energy generation and conversion, cellular reactions
to physical stimuli). Participants will be expose you to the knowledge and
techniques applicable not only to humans but also to plants and animals and
provide a solid background for positions in the environmental and agricultural
sectors.

  • At the end of this diploma course, you will be awarded a level 4 diploma in Biophysics, and will also be able to:
  • Design and conduct complex life-science research projects.
  • Manage and monitor lab teams write technical reports and research papers and present research findings to other scientists and colleagues in journals and at scientific conferences
  • Perform extensive independent research and development.
  • Use, maintain, and clean electron microscopes, lasers, and other laboratory instruments and equipment to carry out their research.
  • Use computer modeling software to determine the three-dimensional structures of proteins and other molecules.
  • Observe the effects of substances such as drugs, hormones, and food on tissues and biological processes.
  • Study the genetic mutations in organisms that lead to cancer and other diseases.

Who is this course for?

  • The Level 4 Diploma in Biophysics is open individuals who already have experience in the related field.
  • This course is open to College-going individuals and Graduates interested in building a career as a Biophysicist in the future

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
