This book develops the theory of continuous and discrete stochastic processes within the context of cell biology. A wide range of biological topics are covered including normal and anomalous diffusion in complex cellular environments, stochastic ion channels and excitable systems, stochastic calcium signaling, molecular motors, intracellular transport, signal transduction, bacterial chemotaxis, robustness in gene networks, genetic switches and oscillators, cell polarization, polymerization, cellular length control, and branching processes. The book also provides a pedagogical introduction to the theory of stochastic process – Fokker Planck equations, stochastic differential equations, master equations and jump Markov processes, diffusion approximations and the system size ...

Reviews for Stochastic Processes in Cell Biology
“This nearly 700-page volume is an impressive account of a ‘second wave’ in the broad field known as mathematical biology. … I say ‘Bravo!’ Bressloff's book is a superb resource for applied mathematicians interested in teaching and/or research in this field.” (John Adam, Mathematical Reviews, February, 2016)
