Biobeam—Multiplexed wave-optical simulations of light-sheet microscopy

Publishing date: 2018-04-13 Published on: PLOS Computational Biology summary: Modern microscopes allow us to acquire high quality external images of biological specimens, however, these can only be obtained at the very surface of the specimen.

pyBadlands: A framework to simulate sediment transport, landscape dynamics and basin stratigraphic evolution through space and time

Publishing date: 2018-04-12 Published on: PLOS ONE summary: Understanding Earth surface responses in terms of sediment dynamics to climatic variability and tectonics forcing is hindered by limited ability of current models to simulate long-term evolution of sediment transfer and associated morphological changes.

PhysiCell: An open source physics-based cell simulator for 3-D multicellular systems

Publishing date: 2018-04-11 Published on: PLOS Computational Biology summary: Many multicellular systems problems can only be understood by studying how cells move, grow, divide, interact, and die. Tissue-scale dynamics emerge from systems of many interacting cells as they respond to and influence their microenvironment.

webpic: A flexible web application for collecting distance and count measurements from images

Publishing date: 2018-04-02 Published on: PLOS ONE summary: Despite increasing ability to store and analyze large amounts of data for organismal and ecological studies, the process of collecting distance and count measurements from images has largely remained time consuming and error-prone, particularly for tasks for which automation is difficult or impossible.

Clinical value of patient-specific three-dimensional printing of congenital heart disease: Quantitative and qualitative assessments

Publishing date: 2018-03-21 Published on: PLOS ONE summary: Objective: Current diagnostic assessment tools remain suboptimal in demonstrating complex morphology of congenital heart disease (CHD). This limitation has posed several challenges in preoperative planning, communication in medical practice, and medical education.
