C3036: Mathematical Biology in Sprout Spring 18 (Feb. 17 - Mar. 03, 2018)
A lot in biology can be learned from analyzing mathematical equations: cancer treatments, zika virus spread, HIV therapy, etc. This class will teach you how to think like a mathematical biologist by showing you how to translate biological problems into mathematical questions. You will learn how to come up with mathematical models for biological phenomena and techniques for how to analyze these models.
