About the Book

Designed for biology, physics, and medical students, Introductory Biophysics: Perspectives on the Living State, provides a comprehensive overview of the complex subject of biological physics. The accompanying CD-ROM, which contains MATLAB® examples and the fully functional student version of QuickField™ 5.7, allows the student to perform biophysical simulations and modify the textbook example files. The text includes many computer models and simulations of biophysical phenomena such as thermodynamics, astrobiology, the response of living cells to external fields, chaos in population dynamics, numerical models of evolution, electrical circuit models of cell suspensions, gap junctions, and neuronal action potentials. Using this text students will be able to perform biophysical simulations within hours. Key Features: Designed to prepare students for practical applications of physics that they will encounter in the fields of biology and medicine. Using MATLAB and Quickfield, computer models allow for hands-on investigation of problems relevant to biophysics, such as modeling biophysical processes and dynamics Includes cutting-edge material in complexity, space biology, and astrobiology Includes a CD-ROM with biophysical lab simulations, example files, 4-color figures from the text, articles from experts in the field, and the fully functional student version of QuickField 5.7 MATLAB examples on the CD-ROM and in the text include: The Hodgkin Huxley equations The FitzHugh-Nagumo model of action potentials Fractal structures in biology Chaos in population dynamics The cellular automaton model - the game of life Pattern formation in reaction-diffusion systems QuickField tutorials and examples on the CD-ROM include: Calculation of currents in biological tissue Cells under electrical stimulation Induced membrane potentials Heat transfer and analysis of stress in biomaterialsAbout the AuthorJ. R. Claycomb (Ph.D) is currently an assistant professor in physics at Houston Baptist University. He teaches modern physics, biophysics and astronomy and his research interests include biophysics and magnetic measurements. He has published over 40 journal articles and is a consultant for various engineering companies. Jonathan Quoc P. Tran has published journal articles in IEEE Transactions on Applied Superconductivity and The Physics Teacher. He graduated from Houston Baptist University in December 2008 with a degree in Biology, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and currently studies medicine at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center.Table of ContentsChapter 1: Building Blocks and Structure Chapter 2: Living State Interactions Chapter 3: Heat Transfer in Biomaterials Chapter 4: Living State Thermodynamics Chapter 5: Open Systems and Chemical Thermodynamics Chapter 6: Diffusion and Transport Chapter 7: Fluids Chapter 8: Bioenergetics and Molecular Motors Chapter 9: Passive Electrical Properties of Living Cells Chapter 10: Nerve Conduction Chapter 11: Mechanical Properties of Biomaterials Chapter 12: Biomagnetism Chapter 13: Nonlinearity and Chaos in Biological Systems Chapter 14: Fractals and Complexity in the Life Sciences Chapter 15: Life and the Universe Appendix 1 Appendix 2 Appendix 3 Appendix 4 Appendix 5 Appendix 6 Appendix 7 Appendix 8 Appendix 9 Appendix 10
