Biophysics Contest – York University
(From the Ontario Association of Physics Teachers email)
The Physics Department of York University is hosting a Biophysics contest.
This is a competition open to all Ontario high school students. The contest aims to investigate a rapidly growing frontier of science, and to promote skills in the communication of science. The goal is to demonstrate the interdisciplinary threads that connect together the physical and life sciences, which can seem and feel like disparate areas of science in high school and university! Students must create a poster to visually tell a “story” that relates a fundamental physical concept to a basic biological (or biomedical) topic.
This is a great opportunity to help your students get excited about what is happening where biology meets physics. The first prize is $1250!! The deadline for submission is midnight May1, 2018.
