Integrating Interactive Computational Modeling in Biology Curricula
While the use of computer tools to simulate complex processes such as computer circuits is normal practice in fields like engineering, the majority of life sciences/biological sciences courses continue to rely on the traditional textbook and memorization approach. To address this issue, we explored the use of the Cell Collective platform as a novel, interactive, and evolving pedagogical tool to...
متن کاملIntegrating interactive computational modeling in biology curricula: Supporting Text
Section 1: Technology and Modeling Framework for Cell Collective Cell Collective (www.thecellcollective.org) is a web-based platform for the creation and simulation of computational models of biological/biochemical processes [11,12]. The mathematical framework utilized in the platform is based on logical discrete networks first developed by S. Kauffman [15] and R. Thomas [16] In these networks,...
متن کاملIntegrating Computational Biology and Forward Genetics in Drosophila
Genetic screens are powerful methods for the discovery of gene-phenotype associations. However, a systems biology approach to genetics must leverage the massive amount of "omics" data to enhance the power and speed of functional gene discovery in vivo. Thus far, few computational methods for gene function prediction have been rigorously tested for their performance on a genome-wide scale in viv...
متن کاملPossibilities for Integrating Model-related Data in Computational Biology
Computational models play an important role in framing our existing knowledge. Such a formal framework is capable of testing scientific hypotheses about biological systems. Increased numbers of annotated models are being developed in order to facilitate communication, search, comparison, retrieval and validation. A key part of model description relies on consistent representation of information...
متن کاملIntegrating science and practice in pharmacy curricula.
An integrated curriculum is one where the summation of different academic disciplines forms a coherent whole and, importantly, where the relationships between the different disciplines have been carefully and strategically considered when forming the composite. Within pharmacy curriculum integration is important in order to produce graduates who have the capacity to apply their knowledge to a r...
