About this course

["Understanding biological systems often necessitates a solid background in physical and mathematical methods. The Integrated Life Sciences (ILS) study programme is an interdisciplinary degree programme addressing biological questions. ILS students acquire in-depth knowledge of mathematical and physical methods to analyse and describe biological processes quantitatively. Structure-function relationships of proteins, DNA sequence analysis and complex interactions between biomolecules or cells are typical areas of application.The international MSc programme ILS is aimed particularly at graduates of interdisciplinary biophysical study courses, but also at graduates with a BSc in related disciplines such as physics, biology or (bio)mathematics with a strong interest in interdisciplinary biological questions. Students will obtain advanced knowledge and methodological skills with a focus on two of the three different directions: Mathematical Modelling and Systems Biology - Bioimaging and Biophysics - Biological Structures and Processes.A mentoring system will support all students in choosing the appropriate module groups and elective courses."]
