Description of  An Introduction to Undergraduate Research in Computational and Mathematical Biology: From Birdsongs to Viscosities (Foundations for Undergraduate Research in Mathematics)

3030336441 rar 3030336441 rar Speaking directly to the growing importance of research experience in undergraduate mathematics programs, this volume offers suggestions for undergraduate-appropriate research projects in mathematical and computational biology for students and their faculty mentors. The aim of each chapter is twofold: for faculty, to alleviate the challenges of identifying accessible topics and advising students through the research process for students, to provide sufficient background, additional references, and context to excite students in these areas and to enable them to successfully undertake these problems in their research. Some of the topics discussed include: Oscillatory behaviors present in real-world applications, from seasonal outbreaks of childhood diseases to action potentials in neurons Read more
