Bionanotechnology is an emerging multidisciplinary field fusing nanotechnology with biology. This new discipline combines biological principles with physical and chemical procedures to generate nano-sized building blocks with specific functions and new properties. Bioanotechnology is an interdisciplinary field, involving the development of biologically-based procedures, the use of biological components and systems,...more

Although stochastic kinetic models are increasingly accepted as the best way to represent and simulate genetic and biochemical networks, most researchers in the field have limited knowledge of stochastic process theory. Stochastic Modelling for Systems Biology provides an accessible introduction to this theory using examples that are familiar to systems...more
