Literature:

The physically motivated mathematical modelling of the dynamics of biological systems provides a mean to turn the typically rather qualitative field of biology quantitative and predictive. While the well established area of Mathematical Biology investigates simple systems, the young field of Systems Biology considers the behavior of complex networks. In this lecture, we will discuss the biological basics of selected models and their mathematical and physical properties.
