Mathematical Modeling in the Life Sciences 生物数学建模
by Louis Tao- 0.0
10 Weeks
学习使用数学建模的方法并通过定量和定性分析模型更好地理解生物现象。Learn to use mathematical models to gain a better understanding of biological processes through both qualitative and quantitative analysis. As modern life science research becomes ever more quantitative, the need for mathematical modeling becomes ever more important. 当现代生命科学研究变得更加量化,建立数学模型的需求变得越来越重要。对复杂生物现象的深入理解最终是建立在了解发生于多时空间尺度的复杂生物学相互作用上,例如,分子尺度,细胞尺度,个体和群体尺度上。通过研究一些案例,我们将建立一些简化的数学模型以及其背后的基本数学框架。同时,我们将学习如何建立基本生物学过程的简单表征,以及如何定量和定性和定量地的分析这些模型,并将它们的结果以生物学的方式进行解释,以期提供实验学家进行检验的假说和预测。 How to construct simplified representations of biological processes and phenomena How to analyze mathematical models in a qualitative and quantitative manner...
