The main activity of the UCF Biophysics Group has been organization of monthly seminars, where postdoctoral fellows, graduate students and faculty members, including guests from local and out-of-state universities and industrial companies, have presented their work of biophysical relevance. The seminars facilitate interdisciplinary collaborative research and thereby enhance the potential of UCF researchers in terms of extramural funding. These seminars are actively attended by graduate students from various programs (Biomolecular Sciences, Physics, Chemistry, Nanoscience, etc.), and therefore promote biophysical education at UCF.
