• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This comprehensively revised second edition of Computational Systems Biology discusses the experimental and theoretical foundations of the function of biological systems at the molecular, cellular or organismal level over temporal and spatial scales, as systems biology advances to provide clinical solutions to complex medical problems. In particular the work focuses on the engineering of biological systems and network modeling.

Rezensionen

".revised and updated to include the latest advances in cancer, aging, and development modeling research. The first chapter introduces the field and reviews the content to follow, while the ensuing six chapters lay the foundations of modeling networks, systems analysis, biochemistry, and signal transduction underlying the systems approach,." --ProtoView.com, April 2014
