Implementing a global approach for efficiently simulating molecular dynamics in agent-based models of biological tissue

Summary: This protocol explains how to take an agent-based model (ABM) with molecular dynamics and set it up to solve the molecular dynamics with a global approach. It can be used to speed up simulations significantly while retaining high levels of accuracy with the original ABM. Two options are pre...

description Summary: This protocol explains how to take an agent-based model (ABM) with molecular dynamics and set it up to solve the molecular dynamics with a global approach. It can be used to speed up simulations significantly while retaining high levels of accuracy with the original ABM. Two options are presented for implementing this global approach, depending on the desired spatial variability in molecular concentrations. Both options coarse-grain the molecular dynamics in space by dividing the microenvironment into regions with uniform concentrations.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Bergman et al. (2022). : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
