Sarah Veatch, associate director of the biophysics program, and affiliate faculty of the Program in Computing for the Arts and Sciences (PCAS), was elected to the American Physical Society fellows "for her foundational work in understanding the miscibility phase transition and associated phenomena in membranes."*
“Think oil and water in a salad dressing bottle,” she said. “The same type of phase transition can happen in the membranes that make up the surface of our cells, and we study how this phase transition helps cells sense their local environments.”*
Sarah Veatch will offer "Introduction to Programming in the Sciences" (BIOPHYS 117, COMPFOR 131, BIOLOGY 131) in winter 2024. It is a high enrollment course, teaching students how to apply Python to basic scientific analysis.
