Multicellular simulations have become indispensable in understanding complex biological phenomena, from tissue development to disease progression. But the diversity in simulation methods – from agent-based models, cellular Potts models, cellular automata, lattice-free models, stochastic particle simulations, etc. – poses challenges in reproducibility, modularity, reusability, and integration within multi-scale simulation. This workshop aims to bridge these gaps by focusing on the development of standards and schemas, with special emphasis on multiscale, embedded, and coupled simulation methods. Through short presentations and discussion, attendees will see the need for standardization, and the importance of sharing and reusing models.
This workshop is being held as a satellite meeting of the Society of Mathematical Biology (SMB) Annual Meeting in Edmonton, Canada.
Morpheus will be showcased and used as part of the tutorial and hackathon at the OpenVT Satellite Workshop, and we look forward to having the opportunity to engage with the community during this event.
Meet us also at the SMB main event.
