Course abstract | |
Modelling of biosystems is a powerful mean for deeper understanding of functionality of biological objects in different modelling scales: intracellular, intercellular, tissues, organs, organisms, populations and ecosystems. Peculiarities and common features of modelling in different scales will be highlighted paying special attention to the choice of appropriate software for each particular scale of modelling. | |
Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
• Knowledge about peculiarities of modelling of biosystems in different scales as well as interconnections of models of different scales;
• skills to choose appropriate modelling scale and software depending on the process of interest as well as interpret the results of modelling; • competence to use Matlab and open access software solving biological problems working alone or in a group, ability to justify the meaning and economical effect of modelling communicating with representatives of bioprocess related industry representatives. |
