This course is an introduction to the theoretical tools that are used to understand the emerging behavior of complex biological networks. Systems Biology is a systemic approach to understand the biological phenomena that occurs inside a cell at the molecular level.
Slides used in classes
Most classes are done on a whiteboard, so you need to keep your own paper copy. Some of these classes are later transcribed into webpage and published here. When the class used slides, they are published here.
