Biology has become the new "physics" of mathematics, one of the areas of greatest mathematical applications. In turn, mathematics has provided powerful tools and metaphors to approach the astonishing complexity of biological systems. This has allowed the development of sound theoretical frameworks. Here, in this review article, some of the most significant contributions of mathematics to biology, ranging from population genetics, to developmental biology, and to networks of species interactions are summarized.
生物学已成为数学领域新的“物理学”，是数学应用最为广泛的领域之一。反过来，数学为研究生物系统惊人的复杂性提供了强大的工具和隐喻。这使得完善的理论框架得以发展。在这篇综述文章中，总结了数学对生物学做出的一些最重要贡献，范围涵盖从群体遗传学到发育生物学，再到物种相互作用网络。
