Organizers are providing a robust schedule that takes into account all time zones around the world, a real 24 hour conference. The "Computational Modeling in [...]
The American Physiological Society (APS) announced it will provide authors with improved guidance for article submission. Research articles published in APS journals are expected to report experimental methods in sufficient detail to allow for transparency of data and replication by others. The ability of others to reproduce results validates original findings and can advance research. [...]
SysMod at ISMB/ECCB 2021 features keynote talks by Ruth E. Baker: “Identifiability and inference for models in mathematical biology,” Ines Thiele: “Whole-body metabolic modeling provides novel insight into host-microbiome crosstalk,” and Boris N. Kholodenko: “Structure-based dynamic modeling reveals ways to overcome kinase inhibitor resistance and oncogenic RAS signaling and oncogenic RAS signaling.” Dedicated sessions on the [...]
Seeking participants for the 2021 SPARC FAIR Codeathon, due June 25th! Help make SPARC data, tools, and resources more Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable in this in-the-cloud codeathon that runs from July 12-26, 2021. In this codeathon, exciting projects which use SPARC data and/or SPARC tools and resources in novel ways, particularly in enhancing, demonstrating, or measuring the findability, accessibility, [...]
The Center for Reproducible Biomedical Modeling has a new publication, Practical Resources for Enhancing the Reproducibility of Mechanistic Modeling in Systems Biology. It is now available on ResearchGate.

Click to enlarge flyer. You are invited to attend a week-long summer school on network modeling, which will conclude with a symposium of research and modeling tool talks to demonstrate how the skills you learn are being used in research settings. This summer school is designed to take beginner and intermediate level modelers [...]
The Center for Reproducible Biomedical Modeling would like to invite you to a talk by Auckland Bioengineering Institute's Dr. Peter Hunter entitled, "12 Labours: Extending the Physiome Project to the clinic and to home-based healthcare”. Distinguished Professor Peter Hunter of the Auckland Bioengineering Institute was recognized at the University of Auckland's Research Awards, winning a Vice-Chancellor's [...]
The Next Web (TNW) just published an interesting story addressing the problem of centralizing ongoing attempts of reproducibility. Could centralization save tremendous amounts of time and energy? “'Unreproducible work wastes the time and effort of well-meaning researchers, and authors should strive to ensure at least one public implementation of their work exists,' ContributionSecure14, who preferred [...]
We've all ecountered this funny, but depressing experience in science and research. This video tells an all-too-familiar story. https://youtu.be/N2zK3sAtr-4
NPR has published How Herd Immunity Works — And What Stands In Its Way, an online model of viral spread. The rapidity of heard immunity variants, based on a number of factors. In this article, NPR demonstrates major factors in scenarios using multi-scale modeling.
