Least squares estimation in stochastic biochemical networks.

abstract：:Population management using artificial gene drives (alleles biasing inheritance, increasing their own transmission to offspring) is becoming a realistic possibility with the development of CRISPR-Cas genetic engineering. A gene drive may, however, have to be stopped. "Antidotes" (brakes) have been suggested, but have ...
