From membranes to membrane machines -- ‘Sausage string’ patterns in blood vessels at high blood pressures -- Phase transitions in mesoscopic spherical membranes -- Modeling microtubule oscillations[1] -- Designing RNA folding cooperativity -- Scaling laws for protein folding -- Self-organizing networks of molecular machines in allosterically regulated enzymic reactions -- Coupled Brownian motors -- On the role of molecular machines in the origin of the genetic code -- Population dynamics and non-Hermitian localization -- Collective motion -- A population dynamics approach to biological aging -- Small-world networks -- Extended mean-field theory for networks of spiking neurons -- Pattern formation in the developing visual cortex: Topological defects, their generation, motion, and annihilation -- Complex spiking behavior from noise-driven neuron interaction -- A new nonlinear model for pitch perception -- Statistical mechanics of network models of macroevolution and extinction -- Exact analytical results in a s
This book demonstrates the usefulness of tools from statistical mechanics for biology. It includes the new tendencies in topics like membranes, vesicles, microtubules, molecular motors, DNA, protein folding, phase transitions in biological systems, evolution, population dynamics, neural systems and biological oscillators, with special emphasis on the importance of statistical mechanics in their development. The book addresses researchers and graduate students.
