APMA 1070: Quantitative Models of Biological Systems
1.00 Credits
Brown University
An introduction to the use of quantitative modeling techniques in solving problems in biology. Each year one major biological area is explored in detail from a modeling perspective. The particular topic will vary from year to year. Mathematical techniques will be discussed as they arise in the context of biological problems. Prerequisites: introductory level biology, APMA 0330, 0340 or 0350, 0360, or written permission. Offered in alternate years.

APMA 1080: Inference in Genomics and Molecuar Biology
1.00 Credits
Brown University
Sequencing of genomes (human and other) has generated a massive quantity of fundamental data that is revolutionizing the life sciences. The focus of this course is on drawing traditional and Bayesian statistical inferences from these data, including: alignment of biopolymer sequences; prediction of their structures, regulatory signals, and compositional characteristics; significances in database searches; phylogeny; and functional genomics. Emphasis is on inferences of the discrete high dimensional objects that are common in this field. Statistical topics: parameter estimation, hypothesis testing and false discovery rates, statistical decision theory, and Bayesian posterior inference. Prerequisite: APMA 1650 or MATH 1610 or equivalent; BIOL 0200 or equivalent; and experience with Matlab or another programming language.
