Find out more about the BSim Platform. Find out how we used BSim to simulate OMV based communication for our project.

Modelling

This year, in order to motivate the work in the wetlab, we have improved last year's award winning BSim software package. BSim is a free, open source, software package for stochastic simulation of interacting bacterial populations. The package has been improved this year to include more biological features as well as a clearer more user-friendly implementation. See the link above for details of the BSim package itself and more information about its features.

Many new features have been added and the process of creating simulation files has been made much more versatile and adaptable allowing for a wide range of biological situations to be simulated. See here for a brief introduction to the creation of BSim simulations.
