Learning objectives

The aim of this course is to provide students with conceptual and methodological tools to investigate biological systems on a quantitative basis. The students will learn how to analyze and understand the biological laws governing systems' behavior and they will acquire professional skills within a multidisciplinary framework of biotechnology and related applied fields. The students will be encouraged to critically revise the biological notions gathered during their Bachelor-level studies. This revision will focus on quantitative and temporal aspects, allowing the students to make progress towards a dynamical description of biotechnological processes. Modern modeling approaches will be critically discussed and compared to highlight both their positive and limiting aspects. At the end of the course, the students will be able to professionally operate in the fields of biotechnology and interact with experts from different disciplines (or in other sectors) on the basis of a common quantitative language.
