Overview

COURSE OUTLINE: Every living cell is the result of beautifully concerted interplay of metabolic, signalling and regulatory networks. Systems biology has heralded a systematic quantitative approach to study these complex networks, to understand, predict and manipulate biological systems. Systems biology has had a positive impact on metabolic engineering as well as the pharmaceutical industry. This course seeks to introduce key concepts of mathematical modelling, in the context of different types of biological networks. The course will cover important concepts from network biology, modelling of dynamic systems and parameter estimation, as well as constraint-based metabolic modeling. Finally, we will also touch upon some of the cutting-edge topics in the field. The course has a significant hands-on component, emphasizing various software tools and computational methods for systems biology

    Hi there
    I am Muhammad Imran recently doing Bs Biotech in GCUF Pakistan.Biotech is not only just a field for me but also it is my passion.So to discover more about it I want to study more about it rather than my course outline.
    Through social media it came to my knowledge that Coursera is a great platform that is offering different online courses.But when I joined it I am shocked to see that many of it's courses are not free but as I am a student so can't afford your paid courses but at the second moment it was also mentioned that you can apply for financial support so as millions of students every year change their dreams into reality .So I also want to study your online courses to enhance my skills and knowledge.

    The course is very helpful and well constructed to train students to solve basic and applied biological problems by combining the science, mathematics, and computing !
