Coupling math and physics with biochemistry, the strength of biophysics lies in analyzing biological systems in a quantitative fashion. In the Thomas C. Jenkins Department of Biophysics, we use cutting edge experimental techniques and modeling to gain mechanistic insight into a wide range of key biological questions. Our department is a community of graduate, undergraduate, and postdoctoral researchers, and our mission is to provide the highest quality education, support, and training for carrying out world-class science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Jenkins Biophysics Program is designed for students interested in obtaining a doctorate in biophysics. Students joining this program carry out their doctoral research with a&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/krieger.jhu.edu\/biophysics\/people\/\">faculty member in the Department of Biophysics<\/a>. This program is financially supported through departmental funds, and therefore can support international students who are ineligible for NIH training grants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">News <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:30% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"425\" src=\"https:\/\/krieger.jhu.edu\/template-academic-small\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2013\/06\/slider.jpg\" alt=\"hands writing\" class=\"wp-image-51 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/krieger.jhu.edu\/template-academic-small\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2013\/06\/slider.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/krieger.jhu.edu\/template-academic-small\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/19\/2013\/06\/slider-300x127.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>Congratulations to Dr. Amir Ghanbari Niaki for successfully defending his thesis!
