Systems Immunology: An Introduction to Modeling Methods for Scientists – PDF

New experimental strategies in immunology have generated massive and sophisticated knowledge units that want quantitative modeling for evaluation. Systems Immunology (PDF) provides an entire overview of computational immunology, from elementary ideas to mathematical modeling on the single-molecule, organism, mobile, and inhabitants ranges. Foundations of Biochemistry and Biophysics presents fashionable mechanistic fashions and their use in making predictions, designing experiments, and clarifying underlying biochemical processes. It begins with an introduction to knowledge evaluation, approximations, and assumptions utilized in mannequin constructing. Key chapters handle fashions and strategies for learning immune responses, with primary ideas clearly outlined. Readers from quantitative biology, immunology, and utilized physics will profit from the next:

• • A abstract of primary ideas in modeling and knowledge evaluation.
  • Coverage of matters the place mechanistic modeling has added considerably to present understanding.
  • Discussion of genetic variety of the immune system, immune response on the cell inhabitants scale, cell signaling within the immune system, and ecology of host-pathogen interactions.
  • Basic rules of computational immunology and fashionable quantitative strategies for learning immune response on the single-molecule, organism, mobile, and inhabitants ranges.

Review

“Taken collectively, the physique of knowledge included on this ebook provides readers with a fowl’s-eye view of various features of thrilling work on the convergence of disciplines that can ultimately lead to a future the place we perceive how immunity is regulated, and the way we will join this information towards sensible ends that cut back human struggling. I like to recommend the editors for placing this quantity collectively.” — Arup Okay. Chakraborty, Robert T.
