The international Integrated Life Sciences master's program was initiated jointly by the departments of biology, physics and mathematics at the Friedrich-Alexander University (FAU) Erlangen-Nuremberg. With theoretical and practical courses in modern techniques at the interface between biology and the neighboring life science disciplines, the program takes into account the rapidly developing research in molecular biology, biophysics, systems biology or synthetic biology. All these modern fields require the integration of techniques and methods from different disciplines on different length and time scales, e.g. the function of individual biomolecules can be studied with X-ray diffraction and computer simulations, novel high-resolution microscopy methods are used to track individual molecules in cells, the wealth of data obtained e.g. in modern genomics and metabolomics is processed in the development of modern computer codes.
Research in Integrated Life Sciences at FAU covers areas ranging from single molecule analysis to intact cells and organisms to describe and design biological systems.
