Introduction This example shows a model of vascular network formation by paracrine signaling (Köhn-Luque et al., 2011) and employs a coupled CPM and reaction-diffusion model. Cells organize into networks due to matrix-anchorage of chemoattractant.

Morpheus is a modeling environment for the simulation and integration of cell-based models with ordinary differential equations and reaction-diffusion systems. It allows rapid development of multiscale models in biological terms and mathematical expressions rather than programming code. Its graphical user interface supports the entire workflow from model construction and simulation to visualization, archiving and batch processing.
