Since the time of Isaac Newton, physicists have used mathematics to describe the behavior of matter of all sizes, from subatomic particles to galaxies. In the past three decades, as advances in molecular biology have produced an avalanche of data, computational and mathematical techniques have also become necessary tools in the arsenal of biologists. But while quantitative approaches are now providing fundamental insights into biological systems, the college curriculum for biologists has not caught up, and most biology majors are never exposed to the computational and probabilistic mathematical approaches that dominate in biological research.
Dmitry A. Kondrashov is a senior lecturer in the Biological Sciences Collegiate Division at the University of Chicago, where he developed an introductory course in quantitative modeling for biology--the origins of Quantifying Life. As an applied mathematician with research interests in protein structures and computational biology, he brings firsthand knowledge of the application of quantitative methods to biological problems and a passionate belief that experience with coding and mathematical skills opens new doors for young biologists.
