Dr. Salsbury teaches a variety of courses from year-to-year including: undergraduate courses in introductory physics, and intermediate mechanics, and graduate courses in molecular biophysics, computational biophysics, drug discovery and design and statistical mechanics. These courses are in the Physics department except for the Virtual Drug Discovery laboratory. That course is part of the Molecules to Medicine curriculum and is taught at BGTC and is cross-listed between chemistry and biochemistry.

Specific areas of teaching interest include:

Incorporating active learning methods into teaching introductory and upper-level courses, such as through Concept Quizzes, or Just-In-time-Teaching.

Using technology to support learning. For example, through Video Lectures. or i-clickers.

Interdisciplinary education and training at the interfaces of the life sciences, physics, and computation.

Recent courses as well as educational resources can be found to the left.

Previous classes can be found on Dr. Salsbury’s old pages, until they are ported here.

The Molecules to Medicine project was developed with funding from the Dreyfus Foundation and NCBC; they are thanked for their support. The APS-AAPT-AAS New Faculty workshop is thanked for training in and exposure to several pedagogical techniques.
