Biosimulation in Biomedical Research, Health Care and Drug Development (Hardcover, 2012)

Biosimulation is an approach to biomedical research and the treatment of patients in which computer modeling goes hand in hand with experimental and clinical work. The models are used to interprete the experimental results and to accumulate information from experiment to experiment. The book explains the concepts used in the modeling of biological phenomena and goes on to present a series of well-documented models of the regulation of various genetic, cellular and physiological processes. We discuss how the use of computer models makes it possible to optimize the treatment of cancer for individual patients and explains how models of interacting nerve cells can be used to design new treatments for patients with Parkinson's disease. We discuss how use of models in industry will allow existing knowledge to be effectively applied, and the book ends with a presentation of the views of the regulatory agencies.
