Volume II of this two-volume, interdisciplinary work is a unified
presentation of a broad range of state-of-the-art topics in the rapidly
growing field of mathematical modeling in the biological sciences.
Highlighted throughout are mathematical and computational apporaches to
examine central problems in the life sciences, ranging from the
organization principles of individual cells to the dynamics of large
populations. The chapters are thematically organized into the following
main areas: epidemiology, evolution and ecology, immunology, neural
systems and the brain, and innovative mathematical methods.
The work will be an excellent reference text for a broad audience of
researchers, practitioners, and advanced students in this rapidly
growing field at the intersection of applied mathematics, experimental
biology and medicine, computational biology, biochemistry, computer
science, and physics.
