How Rob Phillips turns molecular biology into estimates and equations: order-of-magnitude reasoning, counting molecules with coin flips, the thermodynamic model of gene regulation, and what the same method would look like applied to a person's own data.

Arthur Mattuck's derivation of the Laplace transform as the continuous analogue of a power series, and where the transform does real work in pharmacokinetics, gene circuits, signaling, stochastic gene expression, and survival analysis.
