High Speed
Wavelength Switcher
This complete illumination system
with improved digital servo
technology allows 30% greater
light output and switching times of
up to 0.5msec. The unique optical
design uses modern interference
filters, providing integral blocking
characteristics 1000 times better
than typical monochromators.

membranes for water desalination, or studying
neural control of muscle mechanics with a view
to enhanced engineering of automated machines.
Whatever the hook might be, there is usually
some bigger picture that lures the investigator
into the realm of molecular biology.
So, read the incredibly useful pamphlet on careers
in biophysics that is highlighted above, think
about your learned strengths and weaknesses
throughout your physics education, and identify
an aspect of biology that you find particularly
interesting. One other thing, which I probably
should have mentioned at the beginning: if you
want to get into molecular biology, you’ll prob-
ably need to dip your toes in some chemistry first.
Preferably organic. Hope this helps.
Yours faithfully,
Molly Cule
