Overview
Designed to explore the applications of mathematical techniques and methods related to biology, this text explores five areas: cell growth, enzymatic reactions, physiological tracers, biological fluid dynamics and diffusion. Topics essentially follow a course in elementary differential equations — some linear algebra and graph theory; requires only a knowledge of elementary calculus.Synopsis
This text explores five areas of mathematical biology which are unified by their underlying mathematical structure: cell growth, enzymatic reactions, physiological tracers, biological fluid dynamics, and diffusion. Topics follow a course in elementary differential equations, although linear algebra and graph theory are also covered. Knowledge of elementary calculus is assumed.
