Topics include: enzyme dynamics, spread of disease, harvesting bacteria, competition among live species, neuronal oscillations, transport of neurofilaments in axon, cancer and cancer therapy, and granulomas. Complete with a description of the biological background and biological question that requires the use of mathematics, this book is developed for graduate students and advanced undergraduate students with only basic knowledge of ordinary differential equations and partial differential equations; background in biology is not required. Students will gain knowledge on how to program with MATLAB without previous programming experience and how to use codes in order to test biological hypothesis.Lecture Notes on Mathematical Modelling in the Life Sciences,2193-4789BiomathematicsBiophysicsBiophysicsMathematical and Computational Biologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/M31000Biological and Medical Physics, Biophysicshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P27008Biomathematics.Biophysics.Biophysics.Mathematical and Computational Biology.Biological and Medical Physics, Biophysics.570.15118Friedman Avnerauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut26273Kao Chiu-Yenauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910299982003321Mathematical Modeling of Biological Processes2535769UNINAThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
