The revolution of molecular biology in the early 1980s has revealed complex network of non-linear and stochastic biochemical interactions underlying biological systems. To understand this complex system, mathematical modeling has been widely used.
In this talk, I will introduce the typical process of applying mathematical models to biological systems including mathematical representation of biological systems, model fitting to data, analysis and simulations, and experimental validation. I will also describe our efforts to develop and integrate mathematical tools across the different steps of the modeling process.
Finally, I will discuss the shortcomings of our present approach and how they point to the parts of current toolbox of mathematical biology that need further mathematical development.
