Chemical Biophysics - 9780521870702

Simulation and analysis of biochemical systems is at the heart of computational and systems biology. This textbook covers mathematical and computational approaches to biochemical systems based on rigorous physical principles, written with an interdisciplinary audience in mind, this book shows the natural connection between established disciplines of chemistry and physics and the emerging field of systems biology, enabling the reader to take an informed approach to quantitative biochemical systems analysis.
Organized into three parts, introducing the student to basic biophysical concepts before applying the theory to computational modeling and analysis through to advanced topics and current research, this book is a self-contained treatment of the subject.
Featuring end-of-chapter exercises, with problems ranging in scope from straightforward calculations to small computational simulation projects, this book will be suitable for advanced undergraduate or graduate-level courses in systems biology, computational bioengineering, and molecular biophysics.
