From the Back Cover

This book provides an introduction, suitable for advanced undergraduates and beginning graduate students, to two important aspects of molecular biology and biophysics: computer simulation and data analysis. It introduces tools to enable readers to learn and use fundamental methods for constructing quantitative models of biological mechanisms, both deterministic and with some elements of randomness, including complex reaction equilibria and kinetics, population models, and regulation of metabolism and development; to understand how concepts of probability can help in explaining important features of DNA sequences; and to apply a useful set of statistical methods to analysis of experimental data from spectroscopic, genomic, and proteomic sources.

These quantitative tools are implemented using the free, open source software program R. R provides an excellent environment for general numerical and statistical computing and graphics, with capabilities similar to Matlab®. Since R is increasingly used in bioinformatics applications such as the BioConductor project, it can serve students as their basic quantitative, statistical, and graphics tool as they develop their careers

Review

From the reviews: “This book targets biochemistry and molecular biophysics students who have prior knowledge of a few subjects, including mathematics, statistics, and modeling, and possess very basic programming skills. Examples and illustrations are ample throughout the text, and the writing style is plain and efficient. ... this book mostly appropriate for students or researchers who have prior exposure to the related subjects. Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through researchers/faculty.” (D. Papamichail, Choice, Vol. 47 (5), January, 2010)
