An introduction to the mathematical modelling of iPSCs

Abstract

The aim of this chapter is to convey the importance and usefulness of mathematical modelling as a tool to achieve a deeper understanding of stem cell biology. We introduce key mathematical concepts (random walk theory, differential equations and agent-based modelling) which form the basis of current descriptions of induced pluripotent stem cells. We hope to encourage a meaningful dialogue between biologists and mathematicians and highlight the value of such an interdisciplinary approach.
