Cell biology education: where's the math?
- To understand cells, one must understand the macromolecular structure of cells, the spatiotemporal patterns, and mechanisms of cellular dynamics
- Complexities of cellular processes
- Shape (Circumference, radius, area)
- Symmetry
- Size (Prefixes - um, Mm, mm, etc.)
- Dimensions
- Microscope magnification, how many times bigger
- Nature numbers (how many cells)
- Exponential division of cells
- Characterizing the intracellular architecture
- A cell is to a four-dimensional polytope
