Biomedical Science: Computational and Mathematical Methods

Biomedical sciences are the disciplines whose primary objective is the study of the human biology and diseases pathology. The scope of these fields extends beyond elementary studies to specialized domains of pharmacology, human nutrition and physiology. Various basic sciences are associated with biomedical sciences, such as biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology, anatomy, physiology, immunology, bioinformatics, mathematics and statistics. Biomedical engineering bridges the gap between medicine and engineering, by integrating the problem solving skills of engineering with medical biological sciences. Some significant biomedical engineering applications are diagnostic and therapeutic medical devices, common imaging equipment such as EKG/ECGs and MRIs, pharmaceutical drugs, regenerative tissue growth, etc. Studies in biomedical science are aided by advanced computational and mathematical models. An example of this is the field of bioinformatics which uses computer programming for biological studies, particularly in the field of genomics, for developing an understanding of the genetic basis of diseases, their adaptations, and differences between populations. This book covers in detail some existing theories and innovative concepts revolving around biomedical science. It brings forth some of the most innovative concepts and elucidates the computational and mathematical methods of use in biomedical science. Students, researchers, experts and all associated with this field will benefit alike from this book.
