As a result, researchers in systems biology and drug delivery rely on process dynamics and control theory to build our knowledge of cell behavior and to develop more effective therapeutics, controlled release devices, and drug administration protocols to manage disease.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWritten by a leading expert and educator in the field, this text helps readers develop a deep understanding of process dynamics and control theory in order to analyze and solve a broad range of problems in bioprocess and drug delivery systems. For example, readers will learn how stability criteria can be used to gain new insights into the regulation of biological pathways and lung mechanics. They'll also learn how the concept of a time constant is used to capture the dynamics of diffusive processes. Readers will also master such topics as external disturbances, transfer functions, and input\/output models with the support of the author's clear explanations, as well as:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDetailed examples from the biological sciences and novel drug delivery technologies\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e160 end-of-chapter problems with step-by-step solutions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDemonstrations of how computational software such as MATLAB and Mathematica solve complex drug delivery problems\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eControl of Biological and Drug-Delivery Systems for Chemical, Biomedical, and Pharmaceutical Engineering\u003c\/i\u003e is written primarily for undergraduate chemical and biomedical engineering students; however, it is also recommended for students and researchers in pharmaceutical engineering, process control, and systems biology.
