​​

Email Dr. Craig (erin.craig at cwu dot edu) to discuss opportunities to get involved in the Computational Biophysics lab.

Research opportunities for CWU students:

​

Research Area 1: Computational investigation of the physics of neurons

​

Project topics include:​

  • How do physical forces mediate correct “wiring” of nerve axons during nervous system development?

  • How do nerve cells send electrical impulses?

​

Research Area 2: Project of your design in Computational Biophysics, Physics Education, or related topics

 

Student-developed project (past examples):

  • Computational model of pattern formation in plant growth

  • Computational investigation of prion disease propagation

  • Developing tactile graphics for visually impaired students in STEM

  • Teaching mechanical energy concepts through video analysis of kangaroos
