Systems Biology in Practice: Concepts, Implementation and Application

Systems Biology in Practice: Concepts, Implementation and Application
Publisher: Wiley-VCH | ISBN: 3527310789 | edition 2005 | PDF | 486 pages | 13.6 mb

Presenting the main concepts, this book leads students as well as advanced researchers from different disciplines to an understanding of current ideas in the complex field of comprehensive experimental investigation of biological objects, analysis of data, development of models, simulation, and hypothesis generation.

It provides readers with guidance on how a specific complex biological question may be tackled:
How to formulate questions that can be answered
Which experiments to perform
Where to find information in databases and on the Internet
What kinds of models are appropriate
How to use simulation tools
What can be learned from the comparison of experimental data and modeling results
How to make testable predictions.
The authors demonstrate how mathematical concepts can illuminate the principles underlying biology at a genetic, molecular, cellular and even organism level, and how to use mathematical tools for analysis and prediction.
