    Abstract

    The accurate regulation of glucose within humans is an essential feature of homeostasis. It optimises energy release in the muscles and organs. Glucose rhythms driven by internal and external stimuli have been physiologically observed in humans and modelled mathematically to provide a solid framework for understanding these processes in a qualitative and quantitative manner. In this article, we review the latest contribution of mathematical modelling to the understanding and prediction of dynamics within the glucose regulation system.
