Quantitative Biology is where biology, chemistry, physics and mathematics actually meet.
The current study plan of QB is directly addressed to students with a background in biology or biotechnology. However, students from chemistry, physics, mathematics and from other courses of study can also be enrolled after acquiring 12 credits on biochemistry, molecular biology or cell biology.

Programming is an essential skill for every modern biophysicist; a tool to improve the quality of the research work and obtain new results.

In this video Mattia Monga, professor of the ‘Programming in Python’ course within the first year of the master’s degree, explains how Turing patterns occurring in nature can be simulated using Gray-Scott's equations with Python.
