MAT6364 Biomathematics

This module aims at providing students with the general techniques needed to analyse mathematical models in biology.  It introduces dynamical mathematical models in terms of ordinary differential equations using population dynamics, age-structured population and infectious and chronic disease as case studies. The module presents models biochemical reaction networks and reaction diffusion, chemotaxis, stochastic modeling of population growth. The students will be provided with the general techniques to compute the solution numerically with the aid of a computer.
