  1. Welcome to BENG 212 Winter 2012

  2. Purpose • To describe systems biology methods that are used to: • Reconstruct biochemical reaction networks; • Represent them mathematically; • Study topological properties of networks; • Determine their functional (physiological) states; and • Use in silico models for discovery and design

  3. Staff • Bernhard Palsson, • Main Lecturer • Steve Federowicz • Teaching assistant • Marc Abrams, • Publications coordinator

  4. Material Used • Reconstruction methods and steady state analysis • Handouts of lecture material—.pptx files • Chapters from SYSTEMS BIOLOGY (2006) • Podcasts from 2011 • MATHEMATICA or MATLAB for HWs

  5. Outline of Lectures
