MATH 469 - Mathematical Physiology(3.00) Mathematical Physiology develops qualitative and quantitative mathematical models of and answers to questions in physiology. The objective of this course is to expose students from any of a number of scientific disciplines, who have a background in ordinary differential equations, basic biology, and some computation (i.e., familiarity with software such as Matlab), to the exciting synergy of mathematics and physiology. The course will use ordinary differential equations to study non-dimensionalization, asymptotic and perturbation theory, and bifurcation theory. We will perform stochastic simulation and derive certain partial differential equations. These techniques will be applied to physiological topics from biochemical reactions and ion channel kinetics to systems involving cardiac, pancreatic, or neuronal function and malfunction. Recommended Preparation BIOL 141 or equivalent.
Course ID: 101913 Consent: No Special Consent Required Components: Lecture Prerequisite/Corequisite: You must have completed MATH 225 with a grade of “C” or better to take this class.
