Mathematical and Statistical Modeling in Cancer Systems Biology
Cancer is a major health problem with high mortality rates. In the post-genome era, investigators have access to massive amounts of rapidly accumulating high-throughput data in publicly available databases, some of which are exclusively devoted to housing Cancer data. However, data interpretation efforts have not kept pace with data collection, and gained knowledge is not necessarily translatin...
متن کاملMathematical modeling: epidemiology meets systems biology.
This issue of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers, and Prevention includes a study on mathematical modeling of biological processes. Sokhansanj and Wilson describe a mathematical model that mimics the kinetics of base excision repair and thus permits them to investigate in silico the effects of genetic variation in this important DNA repair pathway (1). Why should epidemiologists have interest in t...
متن کاملMathematical Modeling and Lyapunov-Based Drug Administration in Cancer Chemotherapy
In this paper a new mathematical model is developed for the dynamics between tumor cells, normal cells, immune cells, chemotherapy drug concentration and drug toxicity. Then, the theorem of Lyapunov stability is applied to design treatment strategies for drug protocols that ensure a desired rate of tumor cell kill and push the system to the area with smaller tumor cells. Using of this theorem a...
متن کاملSelected mathematical and statistical methods in biology
Some specific methods with applications in biology, ecology and related natural sciences will be presented. The stress will be on less known methods with a wide potential in applications. In the first part, correspondences between two sets will be considered as a tool for investigating various connections among their elements. One of the sets is called the set of objects and another is the set ...
متن کاملMathematical modeling and synthetic biology.
Synthetic biology is an engineering discipline that builds on our mechanistic understanding of molecular biology to program microbes to carry out new functions. Such predictable manipulation of a cell requires modeling and experimental techniques to work together. The modeling component of synthetic biology allows one to design biological circuits and analyze its expected behavior. The experime...
