BioDynaMo in 2024 - End of the year remarks, and Holidays greetings

Image
Dear all,  as we are approaching the end of 2024, we would like to take a moment to reflect on our collaborative achievements within the BioDynaMo community. It has been a year marked by innovation, resilience, and shared commitment to advancing our understanding of various biological systems through innovative computational modelling. This year, the consortium had several important successes. We would like to specifically mention/highlight: The paper presenting BioDynaMo’s application to cancer treatment. Radiation-induced fibrosis is a major risk factor in radiotherapy for lung cancer patients. BioDynaMo members including our Nicolo as first author published in the very prestigious Nature Communications Medicine journal, showing how BioDynaMo can be used to simulate the impact of radiation on the lung on a single cell level. Such modelling can be used to improve radiotherapy: https://www.nature.com/articles/s43856-024-00442-w Also in the domain of oncology, a study leve...

 Last December the 12th Physics World has delighted announced its Top 10 Breakthroughs of the Year for 2024, which includes research in nuclear and medical physics, quantum computing, lasers, antimatter and (of course ^_^) BioDynaMo . The Top Ten is the shortlist for the Physics World Breakthrough of the Year, which will be revealed on Thursday 19 December. PhysicsWorld editorial team has looked back at all the scientific discoveries reported on since 1 January and has picked 10 they judge are the most important. In addition to being reported in Physics World in 2024, the breakthroughs must meet the following criteria:  Significant advance in knowledge or understanding Importance of work for scientific progress and/or development of real-world applications Of general interest to Physics World readers  You can listen to the editors making their case for the research in the Top10 in this podcast What do they say about the BioDynaMo research they selected: <<Modelling...

Congratulations to the winners of the 2022 YERUN Open Science Awards!

Image
On Tuesday 14 February 2023, the Young European Research Universities (YERUN) has announced the winners of their 2022 Open Science Awards , and the BioDynaMo Consortium would like to hereby congratulate the 5 winner projects: ROCK – Reproducible Open Coding Kit , submitted by Dr. Szilvia Zörgő &  Dr.Gjalt-Jorn Peters from Maastricht University. ROCK is a standard for performing qualitative coding and analyses in a transparent manner. It was developed by the applicants to tackle the lack of Open-Source software tools for qualitative research. Presentation available at this link .  LERO Open Science Committee , submitted by Prof. Brian Fitzgerald & Dr. Martina Prendergast from the University of Limerick. The LERO Open Science Committee was formed in 2022 to develop centre-wide strategies that lead to increased visibility for researchers, greater opportunities for collaboration and greater transparency in the research process. Presentation available at this link .  ...
