Description

Introduction to mathematical modelling of biological and biomedical systems. Examples include: the spread of diseases such as HIV/AIDS and hepatitis C through the community, the interaction between pathogens and the immune system in the body, the growth of tumours, population dynamics, pharmacokinetics, renewable and non-renewable resources, and other biological and biomedical applications. Computer simulation, differential equation methods, data analysis methods and other mathematical techniques will play important roles.
