Systems Thinking in Biomedicine

1 credits · Graduate School

This course acts as an introduction to the field of Systems Biology. It is designed to help students consider the interaction among the component parts of various systems and learn approaches to defining these interactions mathematically and simulate them computationally in order to apply these concepts to human health. It will consist of one-hour lectures from invited speakers approximately every other week followed by an hour of discussion. This class fulfills the CPBP and QCB one credit hour seminar requirement. Fridays from 3-5 pm are also available (not mandatory) for more informal gatherings and open discussions about Systems Biology. [1]
