Modern Tools of Biophysics

Handbook of Modern Biophysics brings current biophysics topics into focus, so that biology, medical, engineering, mathematics, and physical-science students or researchers can learn fun¬damental concepts and the application of new techniques in addressing biomedical challenges. Chapters will develop the conceptual framework of the physics formalism and illustrate the biomedical applications.
With the addition of problem sets, guides to further study, and references, the interested reader can continue to independently explore the ideas presented.Volume 5: Modern Tools of BiophysicsEditor: Thomas Jue, PhDIn Modern Tools of Biophysics, a group of prominent professors have provided insights into the tools used in biophysics with respect to the following topics:
Wave Theory of Image Formation in a Microscope: Basic Theory and Experiments
Computer Simulations and Nonlinear Dynamics of Cardiac Action Potentials
Myoglobin and Hemoglobin Contribution to the NIRS Signal in Muscle
Anomalous Low Angle X-Ray Scattering of Membrane with Lanthanides
Recording of Ionic Currents under Physiological Conditions—Action Potential-Clamping and “Onion-Peeling” Techniques
Patch Clamp Technique and Applications
