Past Events

Biophysics Week (March 18 - 22, 2024)

Virtual

During Biophysics week, we heard from Dr. John Dutcher about his experience in transforming a serendipitous discovery of a unique nanoparticle in his lab into a biotechnology company. We also followed along with Sara Evans as she led a gastronomy cooking class on jellies while teaching us the underlying science and showing us neat experiments we can do in our own home.

See Sara’s gastronomy cooking class event highlighted in the Biophysical Society Newsletter here.
