Course content
Biophysics of complex systems is one of the most important disciplines in the system of training highly qualified biologists, based on the concept of integrity, studies various macroscopic systems consisting of many elements, cooperative and dynamic behavior which leads to new structures, complex functions and behaviors. environment. The discipline is based on a systems approach, ie a style of scientific thinking focused on the integration of scientific knowledge and a combination of studying the problem at the molecular, cellular, organismal and population levels.
