MATH 2020 - Mathematical Modeling in Life Sciences

Introduction to mathematical models and techniques in life sciences including topics in population biology and epidemiology, cell division, bacterial growth in a chemostat, host-parasitoid systems, and predator-prey systems. The mathematical topics include linear and nonlinear difference equations, in particular the logistic equation, continuous processes described by ordinary differential equations, stability considerations including chaos (for both discrete and continuous models). Use of the technology is integrated in the course. Prerequisite: grade C or higher in MATH 1070 /MATH 1070H  (3, Sp)
