About this project
Description from the program archive
The Computational Modeling in Biology Network (COMBINE) is an initiative to coordinate the development of various community standards and formats in systems biology and related fields. While multiple resources exist explaining these standards as well as libraries to work with these standards, it is currently challenging for newcomers to start using them. Existing resources are difficult to find, read, comprehend, implement, and interpret. The overall goal of the project is to address these issues by developing Jupyter notebooks showcasing COMBINE standards and libraries.
The notebooks will be developed around one common theme; the famous repressilator model. The project will demonstrate how to construct, encode, visualize, simulate, annotate and distribute computational models using COMBINE standards and libraries. This project will contribute open resources which will
● introduce and educate newcomers to standards for computational models. ● aid in navigating the vast online resources available in this area by providing a common entry point. ● provide an interactive introduction to the libraries with code examples for important examples. ● provide testing of COMBINE libraries via Continuous Integration (CI).
Thereby this project will add an important contribution to the field of systems biology and network biology.
