As mathematics continues to become an increasingly important component in undergraduate biology programs, a more comprehensive understanding of the use of algebraic models is needed by the next ...

For most of the 20th century, mathematics was seen as a close and natural partner of physics and engineering. Secondary and postsecondary mathematics educators channeled the mainstream of their ...

Bill Gates, co-founder of Microsoft, has predicted that artificial intelligence (AI) will surpass humans in mathematics, ...

The careful modeling, analysis, and simulation of living systems using the tools of applied mathematics have led to novel biological insights. Our faculty develop mathematical models and perform ...

Building a mathematics-based understanding of biology at all scales of life — from individual cells to interactions between species — is the goal of a new $50 million institute supported by the U.S.

Despite their important role as "proof-of-concept" tests in evolutionary research, mathematical models are commonly misunderstood in the biology research community. In PLoS Biology, a paper ...

Mathematical modeling has been successfully used in myriad applications, from predicting the weather to understanding behavior. Scientists have now proposed a mathematical model for human biology.

Northwestern University and the University of Chicago are partnering to establish a new $50 million center that will apply mathematics to better understand fundamentals of biology. Northwestern ...

A novel mathematical approach has uncovered that some animal cells have robust 12-hour cycles of genetic activity, in addition to circadian or 24-hour cycles. A novel mathematical approach has ...
