Elizabeth Komives and Arthur Palmer, Program Co-Chairs for the 66th Annual Meeting, will co-chair the symposium. “The Future of Biophysics Burroughs Wellcome Fund Symposium is one of the highlights of the Annual Meeting. Four outstanding young biophysicists are selected each year from an exceptional list of nominations and invited to present their work at the Symposium. The goal of the Symposium is to showcase cutting-edge research pioneered by these leaders in areas that reflect the richness and diversity of biophysics."
"These young colleagues, and the many more equally deserving nominees who could not be selected, truly represent the promising future of Biophysics.” —Elizabeth Komives and Arthur Palmer
The Biophysics Society (BPS) publishes a monthly newsletter entitled BPS Bulletin. Mailed to all members, this publication includes Society news, public affairs, news and profiles of Society members, grant and funding award information, notices of biophysics-related meetings and much more.
Oregon State's very own Afua Nyarko has been featured in the BPS Bulletin and will be speaking at the Future of Biophysics Symposium, in its 13th year, on Monday, February 21, 2022.
