Mathematical modelling plays an increasingly important role in almost any area of life sciences, and this interactive textbook focuses on the areas of population ecology, infectious diseases, immunology and cell dynamics, gene networks and pharmacokinetics.
Introduction. This is an essay about the conceptual foundations of modern biology and the role that mathematics can play for biology. Traditionally, two aspects have been considered as funda-mental for or constitutive of life, reproduction and metabo-lism. The concept of evolution puts the emphasis on the first of them, reproduction.
1 gru 2007 · Because the geometric mean is G≈μ−σ 2 /(2 μ), where μ is the (arithmetic) mean and σ 2 is the variance in absolute fitness, the allele favored by natural selection is the one that best boosts μ while reducing σ 2.
1 sty 2020 · Here we review the building blocks of modern geometric morphometrics: the representation of organismal geometry by landmarks and semilandmarks, the computation of shape or form variables via...
1 cze 2022 · Information and entropy unify the notion of geometry and energy in all biological systems (Crofts 2007; Jost 2022). The notion of entropy in the 'disorder' sense (Altieri et al. 2019) relates...
dives deep into the fascinating world of geometry in biology, exploring how mathematical principles underpin life itself. We'll examine various examples, discuss the underlying reasons for these patterns, and explore the implications for biological research and beyond.
