Biomedical Engineering - CM186B. Computational Systems Biology: Modeling and Simulation of Biological Systems

Institution:

University of California-Los Angeles

Subject:

Description:

(Formerly numbered M186B.) (Same as Computational and Systems Biology M186B and Computer Science CM186B.) Lecture, four hours; laboratory, three hours. Corequisite: Electrical Engineering 102. Dynamic biosystems modeling and computer simulation methods for studying biological/biomedical processes and systems at multiple levels of organization. Control system, multicompartmental, predator-prey, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD), and other structural modeling methods applied to life sciences problems at molecular, cellular (biochemical pathways/networks), organ, and organismic levels. Both theory- and data-driven modeling, with focus on translating biomodeling goals and data into mathematics models and implementing them for simulation and analysis. Basics of numerical simulation algorithms, with modeling software exercises in class and PC laboratory assignments. Concurrently scheduled with course CM286B. Letter grading.
