Framework for Open Source Software Development for Organ Simulation in the Digital Human

The current state of the field of medical simulation is characterized by scattered research projects using a variety of models that are neither interoperable nor independently verifiable models.Individual simulators are frequently built from scratch by individual research groups without input and validation from a larger community. The challenge of developing useful medical simulations is often too great for any individual group since expertise is required from different fields, from molecular and cell biology, from anatomy and physiology, and from computer science and systems theory.
