BIO-369: Randomness and information in biological data

Lectures in this course (28)

Random Walks and Moran Model in Population Genetics

Explores random walks, Moran model, bacterial chemotaxis, entropy, information theory, and coevolving sites in proteins.

Luria-Delbrück Experiment

Explores the implications of the Luria-Delbrück experiment on evolutionary mechanisms and the importance of probabilities in understanding biological data.

Thermal Fluctuations: Importance at Cellular Scale

Explores the impact of thermal fluctuations at the cellular scale, emphasizing randomness in biological processes and the distribution of kinetic energy in gas molecules.

Thermal Fluctuations in Gases

Explores thermal fluctuations in gases and the strength of various bonds, crucial in biological processes.

Biopolymers and Biomembranes

Explores the importance of biopolymers and biomembranes in cell mechanics and their flexibility under thermal fluctuations.

Protein Abundance: Random Walks

Explores protein abundance as a random walk and the Moran model in population genetics.

Random Walks and Moran Process

Explores random walks in biological systems, protein abundances, and the Moran process in population genetics.

Random Walks: Moran Process and Examples

Explores random walks, the Moran process, and examples in population genetics, protein abundance modeling, and bacterial chemotaxis.
