Welcome to the teaching and research web pages of Dr. Freddie Salsbury and his research group in the Department of Physics at Wake Forest University .

We conduct research in computational molecular biophysics; broadly construed.

Our research projects involve, in varying combinations, understanding the molecular physics behind biological function, applying physics-based tools to interesting biological systems, and improving the computational methods used in biological physics.

Dr. Salsbury ’s teaching interests lie in improving the educational experience for undergraduate in both introductory (predominately pre-med) physics and more advanced physics classes, and in training interdisciplinary scientists at the advanced undergraduate and graduate-level.

Dr. Salsbury works to incorporate active learning and Just-in-Time teaching methods, and technology into his teaching.
