Biology is well suited for mathematical description, from the perfect geometry of viruses, to equations that describe the flux of ions across cellular membranes, to computationally intensive models for protein folding. For this short Web review, however, I’m going to focus on how mathematics helps us as biologists sort, evaluate, and draw conclusions about our data. Just as computer technology ...
