Lernziele und Kompetenzen:
Students learn
about the complex physical behaviour of soft condensed matter and the importance of physics concepts for living matter and biological systems.
the mathematical modelling of important principles of living matter (self-organisation, collective behaviour, and non-equilibrium processes).
to solve exercises working collaboratively in groups, to apply approximation methods, to search for errors, to critically reflect presented theories and to defend them in discussions.
the necessary expert knowledge and methods for research-oriented studies in an interdisciplinary network at the interface of biology, mathematics, and medicine.
