Overview
- Immuno systems biology specifically aims to study the host immune system in a more integrated manner
- Focuses on the dynamical analyses of mammalian innate immune response to bacterial and viral perturbations using computational models based on simple physical rules
- Deals with interpreting population level immune cell signaling response in wildtype and mutant cells
- Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

About this book
Immuno Systems Biology aims to study the immune system in the more integrated manner on how cells and molecules participate at different system levels to the immune function. Through this book Kumar Selvarajoo introduces to physicists, chemists, computer scientists, biologists and immunologists the idea of an integrated approach to the understanding of mammalian immune system. Geared towards a researcher with limited immunological and computational analytical experience, the book provides a broad overview to the subject and some instruction in basic computational, theoretical and experimental approaches. The book links complex immunological processes with computational analysis and emphasizes the importance of immunology to the mammalian system.
