Postdoctoral Scholar

Description:

The Medical Biophysics (MBIO) Graduate Program, housed within the Department of Physics and Astronomy, is a new interdisciplinary MS/PhD program launched in Fall 2022. MBIO offers broad training that integrates physics, biology, chemistry, bioengineering, materials science, and computational sciences. Unlike traditional medical physics programs, MBIO emphasizes molecular-to-systems scale biophysics and provides students with a multidisciplinary toolbox to address challenges in disease etiology, diagnostics, therapeutics, and medical technologies. The program involves 30+ faculty from across Clemson and PRISMA Health, offering students a collaborative environment at the interface of physical and life sciences.
