Presentation

Spatio-temporal simulation environment (STSE): the overall goal of this project is to provide a software platform: a set of tools and workflows facilitating spatio-temporal simulations (preferably of biological systems) based on microscopy data. The framework currently contains modules to digitize, represent, analyze, and model spatial distributions of molecules in static and dynamic structures (e.g. growing). A strong accent is put for the experimental verification of biological models by actual, spatio-temporal data acquired using microscopy techniques.
