| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | This textbook grew out of a course that the popular and highly respected applied mathematician Lee Segel taught at the Weizmann Institute and it represents his unique perspective. It introduces differential equations, biological applications, and simulations and emphasizes molecular events (biochemistry and enzyme kinetics), excitable systems (neural signals), and small protein and genetic circuits.A Primer on Mathematical Models in Biology will appeal to readers because it combines clear and useful mathematical methods with applications that illustrate the power of such tools and includes many exercises in reasoning, modeling, and simulations. |
