Abstract: This article examines innovative methods of teaching biophysics in higher education institutions, including virtual laboratories, simulations, project-based learning, and online platforms. Surveys conducted among 275 students and 64 instructors revealed that these methods improve the understanding of biophysical concepts, enhance student motivation, and increase engagement. Virtual laboratories and simulations enable safe and effective experiments, while project-based learning helps apply theory to practice, fostering critical thinking. An analysis of academic performance indicated that students using these innovative methods exhibited a 15% increase in average performance, with course completion rates rising from 70% to 85%. Based on the collected data, recommendations are provided for expanding the use of virtual laboratories, implementing project-based learning, and developing online platforms. The need for instructors to receive additional training for the effective application of these methods is also emphasized. The findings of the article confirm that innovative approaches create a more interactive and effective educational environment, improving the preparation of students in the field of biophysics. Keywords: innovative approaches, biophysics, educational institutions, virtual laboratories, educational environment
