American Journal of Physics Resource Letter and article about homework problems
1. This article contains a collection of homework problems to help students learn how concepts from electricity and magnetism can be applied to topics in medicine and biology. The problems are at a level typical of an undergraduate electricity and magnetism class, covering topics such as nerve electrophysiology, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and magnetic resonance imaging. 2. This Resource Letter provides a guide to the literature on the uses of physics for the diagnosis and treatment of disease. It does not include molecular biophysics but does include biomedical engineering.
