Colloquium

Modeling Biological Development using the Cellular Potts Model

James A. Glazier
Indiana University

The Cellular Potts Model has proved itself to be a simple and flexible framework for creating cell-oriented models of development. I will introduce the CPM and its applications and the modeling environment CompuCell3D which we have created to simplify the process of writing developmental simulations. I will illustrate the application of the CPM to modeling angiogenesis and vasculogenesis /in vitro /and will also discuss a simple extension of the CPM which allows solution of the low-Reynolds-Number advection-diffusion equations which are typical of developmental phenomena.
