Título : Killer Cell Dynamics : Mathematical and Computational Approaches to Immunology Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: SpringerLink (Online service) ; Dominik Wodarz Editorial: New York, NY : Springer New York Fecha de publicación: 2007 Colección: Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics, ISSN 0939-6047 num. 32 Número de páginas: XIII, 220 p Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-0-387-68733-9 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Mathematics Immunology Cell biology Ecology Evolutionary Biomathematics Mathematical and Computational Biology Theoretical Ecology/Statistics Clasificación: 51 Matemáticas Resumen: This book reviews how mathematics can be used in combination with biological data in order to improve understanding of how the immune system works. This is illustrated largely in the context of viral infections. Mathematical models allow scientists to capture complex biological interactions in a clear mathematical language and to follow them to their precise logical conclusions. This can give rise to counter-intuitive insights which would not be attained by experiments alone, and can be used for the design of further experiments in order to address the mathematical results. This book provides both an introduction to the field of mathematical immunology, and an overview of many topics which are the subject of current research, covering a broad variety of immunological topics. It starts with basic principles of immunology and covers the dynamical interactions between the immune system and specific viral infections, including important human pathogens such as HIV. General biological and mathematical background material to both virus infection and immune system dynamics is provided, and each chapter begins with a simple introduction to the biological questions examined. This book is intended for an interdisciplinary audience. It explains the concept of mathematical modeling in immunology and shows how modeling has been used to address specific questions. It is intended both for the mathematical biologists who are interested in immunology, and for the biological readership that is interested in the use of mathematical models in immunology. Dominik Wodarz is an Associate Professor at the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at the University of California, Irvine Nota de contenido: Viruses and Immune Responses: A Dynamical View -- Models of CTL Responses and Correlates of Virus Control -- CTL Memory -- CD4 T Cell Help -- Immunodominance -- Multiple Infections and CTL Dynamics -- Control versus CTL-Induced Pathology -- Lytic versus Nonlytic Activity -- Dynamical Interactions between CTL and Antibody Responses -- Effector Molecules and CTL Homeostasis -- Virus-Induced Subversion of CTL Responses -- Boosting Immunity against Immunosuppressive Infections -- Evolutionary Aspects of Immunity En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-68733-9 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=34509 Killer Cell Dynamics : Mathematical and Computational Approaches to Immunology [documento electrónico] / SpringerLink (Online service) ; Dominik Wodarz . - New York, NY : Springer New York, 2007 . - XIII, 220 p : online resource. - (Interdisciplinary Applied Mathematics, ISSN 0939-6047; 32) .

Applications in Chemistry Promotion Disease Prevention Diseases Mathematical Computational Biology Clasificación: 51 Matemáticas Resumen: This volume summarizes the state-of-the-art in the fast growing research area of modeling the influence of information-driven human behavior on the spread and control of infectious diseases. In particular, it features the two main and inter-related “core” topics: behavioral changes in response to global threats, for example, pandemic influenza, and the pseudo-rational opposition to vaccines. The motivation comes from the fact that people are likely to change their behavior and their propensity to vaccinate themselves and their children based on information and rumors about the spread of a disease. As a consequence there is a feedback effect that may deeply affect the dynamics of epidemics and endemics. In order to make realistic predictions, modelers need to go beyond classical mathematical epidemiology to take these dynamic effects into account. With contributions from experts in this field, the book fills a void in the literature. It goes beyond classical texts, yet preserves the rationale of many of them by sticking to the underlying biology without compromising on scientific rigor. Epidemiologists, theoretical biologists, biophysicists, applied mathematicians, and PhD students will benefit from this book. However, it is also written for Public Health professionals interested in understanding models, and for advanced undergraduate students, since it only requires a working knowledge of mathematical epidemiology En línea: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4614-5474-8 Link: https://biblioteca.cunef.edu/gestion/catalogo/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=32258 Modeling the Interplay Between Human Behavior and the Spread of Infectious Diseases [documento electrónico] / SpringerLink (Online service) ; Piero Manfredi ; Alberto D'Onofrio . - New York, NY : Springer New York : Imprint: Springer, 2013 . - XIII, 329 p : online resource.
