This book develops the theory of continuous and discrete shastic processes within the context of cell biology. A wide range of biological topics are covered including normal and anomalous diffusion in complex cellular environments, shastic ion channels and excitable systems, shastic calcium signaling, molecular motors, intracellular transport, signal transduction, bacterial chemotaxis, robustness in gene networks, genetic switches and oscillators, cell polarization, polymerization, cellular length control, and branching processes. The book also provides a pedagogical introduction to the theory of shastic process – Fokker Planck equations, shastic differential equations, master equations and jump Markov processes, diffusion approximations and the system size expansion, first passage time problems, shastic hybrid systems, reaction-diffusion equations, exclusion processes, WKB methods, martingales and branching processes, shastic calculus, and numerical methods. Thistext is primarily aimed at graduate students and researchers working in mathematical biology and applied mathematicians interested in shastic modeling. Applied probabilists and theoretical physicists should also find it of interest. It assumes no prior background in statistical physics and introduces concepts in shastic processes via motivating biological applications. The book is highly illustrated and contains a large number of examples and exercises that further develop the models and ideas in the body of the text. It is based on a course that the author has taught at the University of Utah for many years.
