Description:

This course presents methods and modeling strategies of biological systems, which special focus on the modeling and simulation of chemical reactions in cellular systems. After completing the course, the student will be able to create mathematical models, both deterministic and stochastic, of cellular systems, implement them, and solve their behavior computationally by running simulations. Systems include signal transduction, metabolism, and single cells. Moreover, the student will be able to explain the differences between deterministic and stochastic methods and chose the appropriate method in each case. After the course, the student will have the necessary skills to use MATLAB environment in modeling.
