Toward Integration: From Quantitative Biology to Mathbio-Biomath?
In response to the call of BIO2010 for integrating quantitative skills into undergraduate biology education, 30 Howard Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI) Program Directors at the 2006 HHMI Program Directors Meeting established a consortium to investigate, implement, develop, and disseminate best practices resulting from the integration of math and biology. With the assistance of an HHMI-funded min...
متن کاملFrom measuring noise toward integrated single-cell biology
A single cell is inherently noisy. This noise is observed as a variability or heterogeneity between individual cells’ responses in an isogenic population, and emerges from fundamental physical process governing state of the cell over time. In practice, states of two seemingly identical cells may be different in the same environment; and in fact the behavior of the population average my not corr...
متن کاملToward University Modeling Instruction—Biology: Adapting Curricular Frameworks from Physics to Biology
University Modeling Instruction (UMI) is an approach to curriculum and pedagogy that focuses instruction on engaging students in building, validating, and deploying scientific models. Modeling Instruction has been successfully implemented in both high school and university physics courses. Studies within the physics education research (PER) community have identified UMI's positive impacts on le...
متن کاملQuantitative biology of single neurons
The building blocks of complex biological systems are single cells. Fundamental insights gained from single-cell analysis promise to provide the framework for understanding normal biological systems development as well as the limits on systems/cellular ability to respond to disease. The interplay of cells to create functional systems is not well understood. Until recently, the study of single c...
متن کاملNeurons go toward the light
for continuous transmitter release. This requires a lasting supply of synaptic vesicles. A new article by David Lenzi, William Roberts (University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon), and colleagues suggests that the SB is a source of these vesicles. The distribution of vesicles on the SB changes sharply in response to stimulation, as seen in electron tomography maps of inhibited versus strongly stimula...
