Video Lectures (77 lectures)

A curated collection of 77 biophysics lectures spanning three university-level courses — from introductory biophysics through advanced biomolecular physics and molecular structure. Topics include DNA, protein folding, optical traps, fluorescence, ion channels, stochastic processes, and molecular interactions.

About These Lectures

These 77 lectures span three complementary biophysics courses: an introductory Biophysics 401 course covering fundamentals and experimental techniques, an advanced Phys550 course on biomolecular physics, and a concept-based molecular biophysics series covering forces, thermodynamics, and protein structure in detail.

All content is publicly available on YouTube. Lectures are organized thematically to align with the course structure.
