Description: Numerical and Statistical Methods for Bioengineering by Michael R. King, Nipa A. Mody The first MATLAB-based numerical methods textbook specifically for bioengineers, including topics on hypothesis testing, plus numerous examples drawn exclusively from biomedical engineering applications. This is an ideal core text for one-semester undergraduate courses, and is also a valuable reference for anyone interested in the quantitative aspects of biology research. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description The first MATLAB-based numerical methods textbook for bioengineers that uniquely integrates modelling concepts with statistical analysis, while maintaining a focus on enabling the user to report the error or uncertainty in their result. Between traditional numerical method topics of linear modelling concepts, nonlinear root finding, and numerical integration, chapters on hypothesis testing, data regression and probability are interweaved. A unique feature of the book is the inclusion of examples from clinical trials and bioinformatics, which are not found in other numerical methods textbooks for engineers. With a wealth of biomedical engineering examples, case studies on topical biomedical research, and the inclusion of end of chapter problems, this is a perfect core text for a one-semester undergraduate course. Author Biography Michael R. King is an Associate Professor of Biomedical Engineering at Cornell University. He is an expert on the receptor-mediated adhesion of circulating cells, and has developed new computational and in vitro models to study the function of leukocytes, platelets, stem and cancer cells under flow. He has co-authored two books and received numerous awards, including the 2008 ICNMM Outstanding Researcher Award from the American Society of Mechanical Engineers and received the 2009 Outstanding Contribution for a Publication in the international journal Clinical Chemistry. Nipa A. Mody is currently a postdoctoral research associate at Cornell University in the Department of Biomedical Engineering. She received her Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from the University of Rochester in 2008 and has received a number of awards including a Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) from the NIH in 2005 and the Edward Peck Curtis Award for Excellence in Teaching from the University of Rochester in 2004. Table of Contents 1.

Review I think this book is a winner … [it] is really easy to read and places frameworks for numerical analysis into realistic bioengineering concepts that students will find familiar and relevant. This is most evident in the excellent boxed examples, but also in many of the homework problems. I also really liked the key points to consider at the end of the chapters - these are useful reminders for the students. Finally, the book presents bioinformatics in a manageable fashion that should help demystify this subject for interested students. K.
