Mathematical Biology : Modeling and Analysis, Paperback / softback Book

Mathematical Biology : Modeling and Analysis Paperback / softback

Part of the CBMS Regional Conference Series in Mathematics series

Paperback / softback

Description

The fast growing field of mathematical biology addresses biological questions using mathematical models from areas such as dynamical systems, probability, statistics, and discrete mathematics. This book considers models that are described by systems of partial differential equations, and it focuses on modeling, rather than on numerical methods and simulations.

The models studied are concerned with population dynamics, cancer, risk of plaque growth associated with high cholesterol, and wound healing.

A rich variety of open problems demonstrates the exciting challenges and opportunities for research at the interface of mathematics and biology.

This book primarily addresses students and researchers in mathematics who do not necessarily have any background in biology and who may have had little exposure to PDEs.
