This book and CD-ROM integrate the use of STELLA software into the teaching of health, nutrition and physiology. The book can be used on its own as a textbook, or can serve as a supplement in nutrition and physiology courses to introduce the role that simulation modeling can play. Dynamic Modeling in the Health Sciences discusses key subjects ranging from the theory of metabolic control to weight regulation to bone metabolism, and gives readers tools to simulate these processes.
Introduces the role that simulation modeling can play in the health sciences Gives readers all the necessary tools to simulate real-world phenomena and complex problems Discusses key subjects such as gene expression, metabolic control, weight regulation, human growth and aging, bone remodeling and osteoporosis, and tumor progression
