Objectives
The objective of the course is to learn mathematical modelling as applied to metabolic and gene regulatory networks. This will concern both theoretical foundations and concrete applications to diverse systems of biological regulation. Applications will rely on the practical use of computer tools for the modelling, analysis and simulation of regulatory networks.
