Whole cell simulator

Abstract

A whole cell model (WCM) is a comprehensive multi-scale computational model representing all the known biochemical processes in a cell. It relies on a variety of intracellular pathway models and omics data. This computational framework enables seamless integration of diverse simulation methods used in WCM such as stochastic simulation algorithm (SSA), ordinary differential equations (ODE), flux balance analysis (FBA), and logic-based approaches. These methods run simultaneously, not only for whole pathways but also for subsets of reactions. Furthermore, we aim to enable dynamic switching between the methods when beneficial. Is
