This book collects recent advances in the field of nonlinear dynamics in biological systems. Focusing on medical applications as well as more fundamental questions in biochemistry, it presents recent findings in areas such as control in chemically driven reaction-diffusion syste…
This detailed book provides an overview of various classes of computational techniques, including machine learning techniques, commonly used for evaluating kinetic parameters of biological systems. Focusing on three distinct situations, the volume covers the prediction of the ki…
"The book provides the reader with an overview of the models that can be used for simulating a PV (photovoltaic) generator at different levels of granularity, from cell to system level, in uniform as well as in mismatched conditions. It provides a thorough comparison among the m…
A practical guide to the manufacture and use of ion-selective electrodes for a wide variety of experimental systems used in biology.
Chapter 1 Introduction -- chapter 2 Non-Statistical Experimental Design -- chapter 3 Response Surface Experimental Designs -- chapter 4 Statistical Analysis of Experimental Designs and Optimization of Process Variables -- chapter 5 Evolutionary Operation Programmes -- chapter 6 …
A number of books written by statisticians address the mathematical optimization of biological systems, but do not directly address statistical optimization. Statistical Optimization of Biological Systems covers the optimization of bioprocess systems in its entirety, devoting mu…
The Metal Ions in Biological Systems series is devoted to increasing our understanding of the relationship between the chemistry of metals and life processes. The volumes reflect the interdisciplinary nature of bioinorganic chemistry and coordinate the efforts of researchers in …

This second edition volume expands on the previous edition with an update on the latest techniques used to study plant systems biology on three specific scales: the molecular level, the tissue level, and the whole plant. Chapters cover topics such as gene regulatory network infe…
"For centuries, it was believed that the only scientific approach to the question "What is life?" must proceed from the Cartesian metaphor (organism as machine). Classical approaches in science, which also borrow heavily from Newtonian mechanics, are based on a process called "r…

"The natural world is infinitely complex and hierarchically structured, with smaller units forming the components of larger systems: genes are components genomes, cells are building blocks of tissues and organs, individuals are members of populations, which, in turn, are parts o…
Evolutionary theory: a hierarchical perspective
