Lecture Material
A script from SS2009 "Einführung in die Theoretische Systembiologie" (in German).
We will cover several topics from this lecture in the Quantitative Biologie Bachelor
A one-page summary of the modified Verhulst equation (logistic growth with low density correction)
A chapter on stability analysis of stationary states (in German)
Practical
Python jupyter notebooks with exercises for each day are available from Matuszyńska repository at githhu.
Final project
Using qualitative theory of ODEs as well as numerical simulations, investigate the dynamics of a single neuron using simplified Hodgkin-Huxley biophysical model (the Morris-Lecar (ML) model). In particular, different patterns of activation depending on its intrinsic parameters as well as on the stimulus intensities should be assessed.
Please send your filled in Jupyter notebook to anna.matuszynska@hhu.de & oliver.ebenhoeh@hhu.de with the title of message "BIQ940-2018 Project" till the 24th of June 2018. Any work send after this day will not be marked.
The project accounts for 30% of the final mark.
