PHYS-441: Statistical physics of biomacromoleculesBiological macromolecules such as DNA, RNA, proteins and cytoskeletal filaments are polymers. As such, they share a set of properties that are common to any polymer, which are the focus of this course. Details about the protein folding problem will be cove ...
MICRO-606: Scaling in MEMSThis doctoral class covers the scaling of MEMS devices, including mechanical, thermal, electrostatic, electromagnetic, and microfluidic aspects. ...
MATH-487: Introduction to multi-scale stochastic dynamicsThis course introduces slow/fast systems and the mathematical tools used to derive effective equations governing their behaviour. Students will learn core concepts and techniques for rigorously analysing complex stochastic multi-scale systems. ...
MICRO-470: Scaling laws in micro & nanosystemsThis class adresses scaling laws in MEMS/NEMS. The dominant physical effects and scaling effects when downsizing sensors and actuators in microsystems are discussed, across a broad range of actuation principles. ...
MATH-478: Dispersive PDEsThis course will give an introduction to some aspects of nonlinear dispersive partial differential equations. These are time evolution problems that arise in many contexts in physics, such as quantum mechanics, electrodynamics, fluid motion and relativity. ...
BIO-692: Symmetry and Conservation in the CellThis course shows students how the physical principles of conservation, symmetry, and locality influence the dynamics of living organisms at the molecular and cellular level. Computer simulations are used to explore examples of cellular dynamics and phase ...
AR-402(r): Studio MA2 (Assemble)This year we will be focusing on timber; its physical material qualities, the infrastructure of skill, labour and technology around its contemporary and historical uses. We will take a critical look at the politics of its production, distribution, and use ...
AR-301(r): Studio BA5 (Assemble)This year we will be focusing on timber; its physical material qualities, the infrastructure of skill, labour and technology around its contemporary and historical uses. We will take a critical look at the the politics of its production, distribution, and ...

MATH-606: Statistical Field TheoryThe goal of this class is to teach how to look at two-dimensional field theories, how to analyse them, how to put structures on them. In the end, the student should have a good picture into what we understand for what is happening at the intersection of Qu ...
