We provide an overview of modeling and analysis techniques for noise and fluctuation phenomena in biological systems with comparisons to electronic systems. We present several examples where a synergistic cross-fertilization between the two disciplines seems promising. In particular, we discuss the characterization of conformational fluctuations in proteins, the simulation of stochastic behavior in intracellular processes, and the modeling of noise in biological neurons, neuronal networks, nervous system and the brain.Computer scienceTheory methodsEngineeringElectrical electronic engineeringConference proceedinghttps://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84893369680&doi=10.1109%2fICCAD.2013.6691206&partnerID=40&md5=511029b2464221dd16adebe7847758ea3310721001171938
