The Biophysical Society Student Chapter program is open to students with an interest in biophysics and leadership. The program aims to build active student chapters around the globe, increase student membership and participation within the Society, and promote biophysics as a discipline across college campuses through activities organized by the chapters. Chapters may be formed within a single institution, or regional chapters may be developed between multiple, neighboring, institutions. There are currently 56 BPS Student Chapters around the world.
