Chaste Development

Last chance to register for the 8-10th January cell based Chaste modelling workshop @UoNCMMB - applications close Friday: chaste.github.io/workshops/2025…

🚨 Chaste workshop registration open now! We'll be holding a Chaste workshop, focussed on our new individual-cell based models and python bindings, at @UniofNottingham Jan 8-10th 2025. Some travel funding available. Apply today! chaste.github.io/workshops/2025…

Reminder that @struttlab and I have a PhD studentship available, blending modelling and experiments to understand tissue patterning in a fluctuating environment findaphd.com/phds/project/b…

Interested in #spatial dynamics of cells and their #chemical environment? Check out this new tool developed by our great PhD student @JohnsonConnah ! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

After a nice talk on cytoneme-mediated patterning by @kyz1024 (what a nice application of @Chaste_Project!) we conclude the morning with a tour de force by @BlindMath: some modern challenges in pattern formation (featuring Turing cats 🐈)

@Chaste_Project we are organising a virtual meeting (1st July) to develop a support network for all Students and Post-Docs using (cell-based) Chaste. If you want to join and get involved sign up! DM for queries. forms.gle/K14RRLqUKp3bs6…

"Seven challenges in the multiscale modeling of multicellular tissues", my review/opinion piece with @DIYOzzy, is now published online: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… (Special thanks to anonymous reviewer 2 for suggesting 7 additional references, all featuring the same author)

🎉 Our new combined experimental and modelling paper of cytoneme-mediated tissue patterning in zebrafish brains is out! 🥳 Simulations powered by @Chaste_Project 🦾

@struttlab and I may have money for a postdoc modeller for 6-9 months, starting soon. Some planar polarity, some growth, some @Chaste_Project. Please contact me for details, or forward to anyone who might be interested. Thanks!

Thank you for including our recent preprint ➡️doi.org/10.1101/2020.1… in this week's #mathonco newsletter @mathoncbro 😊 Here's a video from our preprint on colonic #crypt evolution produced with @Chaste_Project. 🟡wild-type 🔵MMR-def. ⚪️APC+/- ⚫️APC-/- cells

If you're interested in multiscale modelling of multicellular tissues, I've written a short piece with @DIYOzzy on some of the ongoing challenges associated with doing this: preprints.org/manuscript/202…

5. We use a cell-based vertex model using @Chaste_Project to confirm that a tangential apical force, as provided by shear stress, can result both in the reported bias in cell shape and in the observed elongating outgrowth.

Happy to share our new invited review on cell-based modeling in cancer, in @ASCO's JCO Clinical Cancer Informatics. We include curated collections at @Science_Open, making it a living review. Nicely done, @jmetzcar, @YafeiWang89, and @rheiland! ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.12…

Just published in #JOSS_theOJ: 'Chaste: Cancer, Heart and Soft Tissue Environment' doi.org/10.21105/joss.…

And here comes the (obligatory) plug for @Chaste_Project, and test-driven development - check out the tutorials and wiki GitHub.com/Chaste

We're also happy to announce much-improved docker support, making it even easier to get Chaste working, whatever your favourite OS is. Thanks @b_d_evans! github.com/Chaste/chaste-…
