title: [Stochastic resonance in biosystem and its applications].
abstract: Stochastic resonance (SR) is given to a phenomenon that is manifest in nonlinear systems whereby generally feeble input information can be amplified and optimized by the assistance of noise. First, the basic concepts and the characteristic quantities of SR are introduced in this paper. Second, SR in biological system and its applications are reviewed in detail. At last, a summary is presented and the future researches on SR are prospected.
