E
Eigen values and eigen vectors. A math concept important in matrices, and
relevant to exploring the structure and dynamics of molecular biophysics, among other fields of science. A book chapter on the website of the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT).
Electromagnetic radiation. Take a look at this useful graphic of spectrum wavelenghths, energy range
and wavenumbers.
Electron microscopy, a facility which is part of Leeds University school of biology and of the
Astbury department of structural molecular biology. When I read biophysics at Leeds, and electron microscopy was my fourth year second semester project, it was the Astbury
department of biophysics.
Exponents. The University of Pittsburgh.

F
Fluorescence - in biological experiments, and fluorescence in flow cytometry, with a nice explanation
of flow cytometry, data collection, data representation and analysis. Provided by Invitrogen Inc. as animated slide shows, with co-ordinated tutorial (actually mini lectures). The
tutorials are worth watching in total. They explain band filters, low-pass and high-pass filters and compensation to remove bias caused by signal overlap.
Functions. From a chapter in a maths resource [2010] created by British University lecturers
to help transition from school to University, and as a revision tool. Though University math, such as that subsidiary to my biophysics degree, is in parts (only) beyond this level, this
is still a nice base check.
