Philosophy 132 - Physiological Systems Modeling

Institution:

Dartmouth College

Subject:

Description:

(Daubenspeck). Summer 2009, every 2nd year Ordinary, time-varying, nonlinear differential equations describe a wide range of physiological systems and responses. Students will learn to model dynamic physiological systems including excitable membrane phenomena, cardiovascular and respiratory system mechanics and control, and other systems of particular interest to each student. The orientation of the course is pragmatic rather than theoretical, and the goal of the course is to teach students how to construct and evaluate quantitative simulations of physiological phenomena using commonly available computer tools. There are no prerequisites for this course beyond successful completion of the first-year Physiology course. This course will be offered in alternate Spring terms, next in 2009, and will meet at the convenience of the participants.
