Quantifying the Stability of Coupled Genetic and Epigenetic Switches With Variational Methods

The Waddington landscape provides an intuitive metaphor to view development as a ball rolling down the hill, with distinct phenotypes as basins and differentiation pathways as valleys. Since, at a molecular level, cell differentiation arises from interactions among the genes, a mathematical definiti...
