Мета вивчення дисципліни: The purpose of teaching the discipline "Biophysics" is to acquaint students with the principles and methods that are necessary for understanding the biophysical mechanisms of functioning of living systems, which include methods of biological thermodynamics, mechanisms of energy exchange in biological systems, mechanisms of substance transport through cell membranes, bioelectrical phenomena, fundamentals of regulation and exchange of information in living objects, the effect of ionizing and ultraviolet radiation on the body, the method of labeled atoms, etc.
Завдання: The study of an educational discipline involves the formation of competencies in students of education: integral competence: • INT The ability to solve complex tasks and problems of biotechnology and bioengineering, which involves conducting research and/or implementing innovations and is characterized by the uncertainty of conditions and requirements. general competences: • GC01. Ability to apply knowledge in practical situations. • GC05. Ability to learn and master modern knowledge. • GC10. The ability to use professional knowledge and practical skills to solve specific tasks in the field of biotechnology and bioengineering.
Learning outcomes: COM2. Ability to use a variety of methods, including modern information technologies, for effective communication at professional and social levels. AiV 3. The ability to take responsibility for the work performed, to make decisions independently, to achieve the set goal in compliance with the requirements of professional ethics.
Required prior and related subjects: Prerequisites: • physics Co-requisites: • Biomonitoring, Biosafety, Biosecurity and Ecological Expertise
Summary of the subject: The discipline "Biophysics" introduces the principles and methods that are necessary for understanding the biophysical mechanisms of the functioning of living systems, in particular this question, which reveals biological thermodynamics and mechanisms of energy transfer in biological objects, mechanisms of penetration of substances through cell membranes, bioelectric phenomena, the action of ultraviolet radiation on the body, the method of labeled atoms.
