Mathematical physiology is a branch of applied mathematics that deals with the use of mathematical concepts and techniques to study various physiological processes and systems. It is an interdisciplinary field that draws on expertise from mathematics, physics, biology, and medicine. Synonyms for mathematical physiology may include physiological mathematics, computational physiology, or mathematical biology. Computational physiology refers to the use of computer simulations to understand the complex interactions between different physiological systems. Mathematical biology, on the other hand, focuses on the mathematical analysis of biological phenomena such as genetics, epidemiology, and ecology. Whatever the name, the field of mathematical physiology has revolutionized our understanding of the human body and is becoming increasingly important in developing new medical treatments and technologies.
