NIH P41 grant for Center for Reproducible Biomedical Modeling

May 15, 2024  Ion Moraru and Eran Agmon were awarded a renewed NIH P41 grant to extend Biosimulations (https://biosimulations.org) with multi-algorithmic composition through the NIH Center for Reproducible Biomedical Modeling. Nearly $6 million from the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering will support this collaborative project, involving leading investigators such as Elebeoba May (University of Wisconsin-Madison), David Nickerson (University of Auckland), John Gennari (UW Department of Biomedical Informatics and Medical Education), and Joseph Hellerstein (UW eScience Institute), with Herbert M. Sauro (UW Department of Bioengineeringas director. The center aims to enhance multi-scale and integrative computer models of disease and non-disease states, making them credible, understandable, reproducible, and extensible.
