Module codeNSCM005
Module lecturers:Prof Krasimira Tsaneva-Atanasova
Module credits:15

This is an advanced module in mathematical modelling applied to biology and medicine that focuses on modern applications of mathematical techniques to cutting-edge research in these areas. It will introduce you to advanced topics in biochemical networks, physiology, epidemiology and biomedical data analysis. The module is run as a combination of lectures and hands-on computational modelling sessions, and may also involve laboratory visits.

This module provides you with small-group teaching across a selection of advanced topics, reflecting the research interests of the staff involved. The syllabus consists of three short courses, each taught as a self-contained set comprising four lectures together with four workshops/tutorials. In order to take this module, you must ensure that you have completed module ECM2702 Differential Equations.

This is an optional module for Final Year students of MSci Natural Sciences, and is also an optional module for Third Year Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics undergraduates.

Please note that all modules are subject to change, please get in touch if you have any questions about this module.
