1997 - 2001
A.D.
Candidate - Master of Science (M.S.) - Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics
Candidate - Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) - 1st Major - Submatriculant - Biophysics
'biophysics (n) - The physics of biological processes. Biophysicists use experimental and theoretical approaches and develop new methods to address the mechanisms of biological processes at every level.'
2nd Major - with Honors - Philosophy of Science
'philosophy {Gk. filosofia [philosophia]}
Literally, love of wisdom. Hence, careful thought about the fundamental nature of the world, the grounds for human knowledge, and the evaluation of human conduct. As an academic discipline, philosophy's chief branches include logic, metaphysics, epistemology, and ethics, and the appropriate aims and methods of each are the
concern of metaphilosophy.'
3rd Major - Concentration in Chemical Principles - Physics
'physics (n). The science of matter and energy and of the interactions between the two.'
