Contents The basics of R. Calculating with R ; Plotting with R ; Functions and programming ; Data and packages -- Simulation of biological processes. Equilibrium and steady state calculations ; Differential equations and reaction kinetics ; Population dynamics ; Diffusion and transport ; Regulation and control of metabolism ; Models of regulation -- Analyzing DNA and protein sequences. Probability and population genetics ; DNA sequence analysis ; Statistical analysis in molecular and cellular biology. Statistical analysis of data ; Microarrays -- Appendix: Basic string manipulations in R
Summary Presents an introduction to two important aspects of molecular biology and biophysics: computer simulation and data analysis. This title introduces tools to enable readers to learn and use fundamental methods for constructing quantitative models of biological mechanisms, including complex reaction equilibria and kinetics, and population models
Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 313-315) and index
