Inhaltsangabe

This book provides a picture of current research in mathematical biology, for graduate students and research scientists. Each chapter is based on a series of lectures given by a leading researcher and develops methods and theory of mathematical biology from first principles. Exercises are included. Introductory chapters describe the biological dynamics of reactions and spatial processes. Each remaining chapter stands alone as a snapshot of in-depth research within a sub-area of mathematical biology. Some specific topics include matrix models and population dynamics, mathematical epidemiology of infectious diseases, topological approaches to biological dynamics, and mathematical modeling of solid tumor growth. Material originated at the 2005 IAS/Park City Mathematics Institute Graduate Summer School. B&w and color images are included. Information on the editor is not given.
