This book provides an introduction to two important aspects of
modern bioch- istry, molecular biology, and biophysics: computer
simulation and data analysis. My aim is to introduce the tools that
will enable students to learn and use some f- damental methods to
construct quantitative models of biological mechanisms, both
deterministicandwithsomeelementsofrandomness;tolearnhowconceptsofpr-
ability can help to understand important features of DNA sequences;
and to apply a useful set of statistical methods to analysis of
experimental data. The availability of very capable but inexpensive
personal computers and software makes it possible to do such work
at a much higher level, but in a much easier way, than ever before.
TheExecutiveSummaryofthein?uential2003reportfromtheNationalAcademy
of Sciences, "BIO 2010: Transforming Undergraduate Education for
Future - search Biologists" [12], begins The interplay of the
recombinant DNA, instrumentation, and digital revolutions has p-
foundly transformed biological research. The con?uence of these
three innovations has led to important discoveries, such as the
mapping of the human genome. How biologists design, perform, and
analyze experiments is changing swiftly. Biological concepts and
models are becoming more quantitative, and biological research has
become critically dependent on concepts and methods drawn from
other scienti?c disciplines. The connections between the biological
sciences and the physical sciences, mathematics, and computer
science are rapidly becoming deeper and more extensive.
