What is MorphoDynamX?
MorphoDynamX is based on a data structure called Cell Complexes that are ideal for modeling subdividing geometry in 2 and 3 dimensions. MorphoDynamX integrates image processing with simulation modeling, and allows models to run directly on templates extracted from imaging data.
Simulation of Phyllotaxis on a shoot apex using a Meinhardt activator-inhibitor system. The simulation combines a molecular network, cell-cell signaling, growth, and cell division. As the apex grows, space opens up at the tip for a new leaf to form. Green represents the concentration of the activator.
MorphoDynamX will be available for public release soon
We are still working on MorphoDynamX, but if you would like to obtain a pre-release copy and/or sample models, please email Richard Smith.
