Objectives
Through this course, basic statistical tools as well as modeling concepts and techniques will be discussed to allow engineering students to analyze and model data in the life sciences. From concrete examples, analysis and modeling strategies will be studied, and the development of a complete model will be worked out.
Programme
BE 1 (4h): Modeling of living tissue BE 2 (4h): Cell membrane modeling in molecular dynamics BE 3 (4h): Epidemiology and vaccination BE 4 (3h): Statistical tools for life sciences
