时间：每周五 11:00-13:00（午间时段，提供工作餐）
地点：西湖大学理学楼，E5-120会议室
形式：读书会每周聚焦生物物理学领域的一篇经典论文或书籍章节，通过主讲人领读与集体讨论，理解相关领域的核心概念、理论与模型，系统梳理该领域的基础知识、核心问题与研究范式。
Overview: The Biophysics Journal Club is a weekly Friday lunchtime event hosted by the faculty and students of the Center for Interdisciplinary Studies (CIS). Our goal is to help everyone learn about how key concepts and groundbreaking discoveries have shaped and inspired the entire research fields. Through lively, in-depth discussion of classic biophysics papers and books, we explore the history, foundational principles, research methodologies, and the remarkable stories of the scientists behind them. Join us to connect with the roots of biophysics and spark ideas in a welcoming environment.
Organizers: Hong Qian, Xiaochan Xu
Speaker: Led by postdocs & PhDs, and everyone can be a host!
Audience: All with a strong interest in biophysics are warmly welcomed.
Time: Every Friday, 11:00-13:00 (Lunch provided)
Venue: E5-120, School of Science, Westlake University
