This project is part of the Project Network 2: In Silico Models of Coupled Biological Systems of the Cluster of Excellence "Data-Integrated Simulation Science (SimTech)" and thus funded by Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) under Germany´s Excellence Strategy – EXC 2075 – 390740016.
The project aims at a better understanding of the development of tumors in the liver, which is necessary to predict the process of cancer growth and retardation in the liver. The scope is as follows:
- Develop a deterministic multiscale model for tumor growth and metastases,
- improve the efficiency in the numerical calculation,
- integrate data obtained experimentally and in silico, and
- develop and apply polymorphic uncertainty quantification (UQ) procedures.
