I commend the editors for putting this volume together.\" \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e–Arup K. Chakraborty, Robert T. Haslam Professor of Chemical Engineering, and Professor of Physics, Chemistry, and Biological Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, USA\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNew experimental techniques in immunology have produced large and complex data sets that require quantitative modeling for analysis. This book provides a complete overview of computational immunology, from basic concepts to mathematical modeling at the single molecule, cellular, organism, and population levels. It showcases modern mechanistic models and their use in making predictions, designing experiments, and elucidating underlying biochemical processes. It begins with an introduction to data analysis, approximations, and assumptions used in model building. Core chapters address models and methods for studying immune responses, with fundamental concepts clearly defined.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReaders from immunology, quantitative biology, and applied physics will benefit from the following:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eFundamental principles of computational immunology and modern quantitative methods for studying immune response at the single molecule, cellular, organism, and population levels.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eAn overview of basic concepts in modeling and data analysis.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eCoverage of topics where mechanistic modeling has contributed substantially to current understanding.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cli\u003eDiscussion of genetic diversity of the immune system, cell signaling in the immune system, immune response at the cell population scale, and ecology of host-pathogen interactions.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45546694836462,"sku":"9781498717403","price":352.8,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/systems-immunology-hardback","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
