ReaDDy-Cell is a whole-cell digital twin simulation framework built on the ReaDDy particle-based reaction-diffusion platform. This implementation enables simulation of mitochondrial dynamics and intracellular transport directly from 4D lattice light-sheet microscopy (LLSM) data. For full details, check out our preprint on BioxRiv! Whole-cell particle-based digital twin simulations from 4D lattice light-sheet microscopy data
- Active Transport (Untreated Control)
- ️Intermediate Perturbation (Nocodazole 30 min)
- Passive Transport (Nocodazole 60 min)
- ReaDDy-Made-Models (RMM): Image-guided stochastic procedural generation method for constructing particle-based models from imaging data.
- Automated Digital Twin Construction: Factory methods for building spatially explicit, particle-based models of mitochondria, microtubules, plasma membrane, and nuclear membrane from live-cell imaging data.
- Passive & Active Transport Dynamics: Simulates mitochondrial diffusion and directed motor-driven active transport along microtubule topologies.
- In-Browser Visualization: Simulation trajectories are rendered using Simularium Viewer.
