Stochastic Modelling for Systems Biology, Second Edition (Chapman & Hall/CRC Mathematical & Computational Biology)

This book provides an accessible introduction to the use of stochastic processes for modeling biological systems, such as genetic and biochemical networks. Focusing on simulation, the text includes many examples, R and SBML code, and a number of computer-based exercises. Fully updated, this second edition includes improvements to the chapters on kinetics and approximate algorithms. It also greatly expands the coverage of statistical inference, including material on network inference and parameter inference. Updated computing aspects include the use of the new SBML Level 3.
