Bugs: I had some figures copy-pasted from WORD document, and it failed to print out on the poster. I resolved this problem by move the figure out of the WORD box.

SMB2015 Day 1
=>Lovchenko answers to pathway vs network. Depends on the contexts, depends on what we try to understand. Pathways can be convincingly defined when no crossovers occur in networks.

mathematican turing coffee into theorems
showed a magician's work, turning coffee into coins.
biology challenge: how to weave snapshots into a movie?
dX = net change = influxes - efflexes
The values of the X are snapshots. The righthand are the mechanisms to infer
Case one, heat stress response in yeast, within minutes. (not affect by gene expression)
Immediate change of enzyme activities are Arrhenius effect.
Challenge of presentation: convey the key messages and why all these math equations are important.
=> chemical reactions, quasi-steady state approximation QSSA
reformat chemical reaction into state vectors.

difficulties: all possible states are very large
to reduce dimenson: identify fast invariants (nodes in the networks) that can reach quasi-steady states
/* This is similar to my rate-limiting approach for aging simulations */
the "slow manifold" is often the interest of experimental investigation. In ODE setting, set the fast reaction to zero.
Chemical master equations is often used to capture the stochasticity.
Often not solvable analytically, and studied by Gillespie algorithm based simulations. Fast reactions slows down Gillespie algorithms.
Propensity functions in stochastic simulations
Recently, some negative stories of QSSA were shown in stochastic systems.
Key ref: Rao and Arkin, JCP 2003.
Kim: slow manifold of stochastic systems is the conditional average. People have been using Michaellis-Menton to approximate the slow manifold.
Kim evaluate the difference between <conditional avearge> and the M-M deterministic value, using moment method. Kim conlcuded that 'low sensitivity' is necessary for accurate stochastic QSSA.

A math modeling class also emphasize scientific writing for sophomores and juniors.
Prereqquisite: differential equations. required for biomath majors.
Example in class: SIR model, slightly modified in different student groups
Two report milestones due in the course: a draft in midterm, a final report in the end.
Fall 2012, 2013 in MATLAB, 2014 switch to Mathematica (easier, also students use it in their previous courses).
About half of the coding and writing assignments are group assignments. Student peer-review using a rubric. The rubric seem to be generated by the students themselves.

OK, it is not trivial to setup unison on blacklight.

vertical strips on 17in mac pro laptop
Today, my 17inch mac pro laptop (5 years old now, hostname "ace") has a vertical strip in the middle. (It occurred once in the spring 2015, but went away on its own).
After some online research, I pressed the glass screen for a few second, and restart by holding CMMD+Ctrl+P+R. The vertical strip went away.
Pressing the glass screen was mentioned at

CMMD+Ctrl+P+R was mentioned at
http://www.cnet.com/forums/discussions/macbook-pro-screen-problems-strip-screen-then-shutdown-588409/
Later in the afternoon, the same vertical strip come back again, after some overheated use.
I tried press the glass and CMMD+Ctrl+P+R again. The vertical strip was still there.

When you click the Knit button a document will be generated that includes both content as well as the output of any embedded R code chunks within the document. You can embed an R code chunk like this:
summary(cars)
## speed dist
## Min. : 4.0 Min. : 2.00
## 1st Qu.:12.0 1st Qu.: 26.00
## Median :15.0 Median : 36.00
## Mean :15.4 Mean : 42.98
## 3rd Qu.:19.0 3rd Qu.: 56.00
## Max. :25.0 Max. :120.00
You can also embed plots, for example:Note that the
echo = FALSE
parameter was added to the code chunk to prevent printing of the R code that generated the plot.
