Overview
The Center for Biological and Materials Physics (CBAMP) is a
research center in the Physics Department at Florida Alantic University (FAU).
Orginally founded as the Alloy Research Center in 1989,
the CBAMP now focuses on fundamental research on condensed-matter systems with both technological and biological applications.
The center combines experimental expertise in magnetic nano-materials, x-ray diffraction, and Raman spectroscopy with theoretical expertise in soft-matter systms, including DNA and other structures found in the cell. These activities enhance the potential for
cutting-edge interdisciplinary research in conjunction with new and planned bio-medical
efforts at FAU and in the private sector throughout South Florida.
A brief description of our research is below. More information is available through the links at left.
Current Ph.D. and undergraduate students interested in working in this group should contact Prof. Leventouri at leventouri@physics.fau.edu.
Research Interests
The CBAMP provides a focus for communications and forging
collaborations to facilitate studies in Biological Physics and Materials Physics.
