Mid stage postgraduate research students
Early career researchers
Research students and staff in the health and life sciences.
Pre-requisitesSome basic mathematical knowledge is assumed (GCSE or equivalent level).
ProcessA two-day course run on consecutive days, consisting of lectures and hands-on practical sessions.
DescriptionMaths is applied to a wide range of topics in medicine and biology, and forms the foundation for much of what is now called "Systems Biology". Assuming some basic mathematical knowledge, this course will introduce key concepts in how to build models of biological systems, how to investigate the behaviour of those models, and how to interpret the results. Lectures will be supported by hands-on practical modelling and computer simulation using MATLAB.
Key themes
By the end of the session, participants will:
understand key concepts in how to build models of biological systems
know how to investigate the behaviour of those models
be able to interpret the results of those models.
